Cob Cock

Cob Cock is a large species of thorn covered plants with chicken heads and small featherless wings, effectively making them plant/chicken hybrids. They only appeared in Donkey Kong Jungle Beat. They are usually seen sleeping and while they don't actually attack Donkey Kong while asleep they impede his path by blocking the way and on the occasion that they are awake they will turn red with anger and attempt to headbutt Donkey Kong. In order to defeat them, Donkey Kong has to wait until their heads bob downward (which eventually happens while they're asleep or after they've done a headbutt) then he must jump on their cockscomb and hit it continuously, the Cob Cock's cockscomb will then swell up and the creature will explode. They primarily inhabit the Pineapple Kingdom but can be found in other kingdoms as well.

Trivia

 * The "cob" part of its name is most likely a reference and pun on the Japanese plant Magnolia Kobus (コブシ) or to the area on a corn plant on which kernels grow.
