For an enemy species from New Super Mario Bros. U described as "Giant Clams" in the game's Prima Official Game Guide, see Clampy.
The Giant Clam[1] is a large Clambo and the second boss of Donkey Kong Land. It is the boss of the world Kremlantis, encountered in the final location, Seabed Showdown. Unlike its unmoving brethren, the Giant Clam is capable of moving through the water.
During the boss battle, Giant Clam moves around and spits pearls at Donkey Kong or Diddy Kong. He spits them out from the opposite corner that the active Kong is in. To harm Giant Clam, DK or Diddy must trick it into firing pearls at a dormant Clambo in the corner, then dodge the approaching pearls. A pearl then ricochets into the Giant Clam and injures it.
After the Giant Clam is hit a few times, it moves faster and fires pearls more rapidly. The dormant clam also changes between corners in the battle. The active Kong is required to react quickly, especially because of the small area. The Giant Clam is defeated after eight hits, and the Kongs are awarded Banana Bunches.
