An oyster,[1][2] also referred to as clam,[3][4][5] is a large, sinister-looking enemy found in Donkey Kong 64. They are stationary and indestructible. Only five of them appear in the game, and they are all found in a locked chest in Gloomy Galleon. In order to get inside this chest and reach the oysters, Tiny Kong must shrink down in size using a Mini-Monkey Barrel and swim through the keyhole on the chest's lock. Once inside, Tiny will find several oysters opening and closing their mouths repeatedly; inside the mouth of each oyster is a pearl. Tiny must carefully swim inside an oyster and grab the pearl within. Only the oyster's teeth when they slam their mouths shut can injure Tiny. Once Tiny grabs all the pearls, she must return them to the Mermaid's seashell citadel where she can exchange them for a Golden Banana.
