'''Donkey Kong''', also known as '''DK''', is a powerful [[Kong]] from [[Donkey Kong Island]].  In fact, there have been two seperate Donkey Kong.  The original Donkey Kong from the original ''[[Donkey Kong]]'' arcade game eventually became [[Cranky Kong]], while his son [[Donkey Kong Jr.]] became the cuurent Donkey Kong.  Contrary to popular belief, he is not the ape in the arcade game [[Donkey Kong (arcade game)|Donkey Kong]].  The current Donkey Kong is a carefree simian who spends his days collecting [[Banana|Bananas]] and spending time with his friends, particularly [[Diddy Kong]].  However, when trouble arises, Donkey Kong jumps headfirst into the action to help his friends and protect his island.

His plots to kidnap DK continuously coming short, King K. Rool ditched all traces of pretense and developed a machine, the [[Blast-O-Matic]], capable of completely destroying Donkey Kong Isle.  However, due to the incompetence of his underlings, [[K. Rool's Ship]] crashed into rocks offshore and delayed the blast.  [[Squawks]], a friend of Donkey Kong, witnessed these events and reported to DK.  Donkey Kong discovered that all 201 of his [[Golden Bananas]] had been stolen and four of his friends kidnapped.  Diddy Kong, [[Lanky Kong]], [[Tiny Kong]], and [[Chunky Kong]] were locked behind cages throughout the island.

Donkey Kong discovered a special boat attached to K. Rool's Ship.  Inside, [[K. Lumsy]], an enormous, disobedient Kremling, had been locked up for not destroying the island.  When DK promised to get him out of the cage, K. Lumsy jumped for joy, opening up a pathway to [[Jungle Japes]].  Once there, DK found Diddy Kong and freed him.  Many other friendly faces were found among the Kremling armies, including Funky Kong, Cranky Kong, [[Snide]], [[Troff]], and [[Scoff]].  In a later area, Candy Kong also joined the fight.  One of her gifts to Donkey Kong was a set of [[Bongos]], which affected Donkey Kong's later life.

As Donkey Kong freed his buddies, they in turn helped him find his Golden Bananas and the keys to K. Lumsy’s cage.  Eventually, the team was able to take on K. Rool in a boxing match.  After his defeat, K. Rool fled the island.
