Tracker Barrel

The Tracker Barrel is a type of Barrel that appears in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! and Donkey Kong Land III.

Tracker Barrels appear in various Waterfall stages; in DKC3, they appear in Tracker Barrel Trek, and in DKL3, they appear in Rocketeer Rally, Footloose Falls, and Rickety Rapids. When a Kong enters one, these barrels will launch them in mid-air, tracking their horizontal movement as the Kongs move left or right, continuing to launch them up. Often, Tracker Barrels are placed near many Buzzes, especially in the levels Tracker Barrel Trek and Rickety Rapids.

Tracker Barrels launch the Kongs much higher in DKC3 than they do in DKL3.
