Template:Species-infobox Tiki Buzzes[1] are members of the Tiki Tak Tribe and enemies that appear in Donkey Kong Country Returns and Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D. They have two variants, Tiki Torks and Flaming Tiki Buzzes: the former is a larger version and the latter is a flaming version of them.

Tiki Buzzes are wooden tikis shaped as a bongo drum, and they are nearly the size of Diddy Kong. They have carved black eyeballs, a yellow beak, red wings, and brown tail feathers. They have three beaded strings attached to the bottom.

Every Tiki Buzz flies in a different pattern: some move around vertically while others move horizontally. Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong can jump on them to reach higher locations and cross wide gaps. Tiki Buzzes are common in Mine Cart levels, such as Crazy Cart, where the Kongs must often land their Mine Cart on them to reach higher rails. Tiki Buzzes are weak enemies, and they can be defeated from a single jump, a Roll Attack, from throwing a barrel, or with help from Rambi the Rhino. Their behavior is comparable to Neckys from Donkey Kong Country.

Tiki Buzzes appear as Smash Run enemies in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS. Like in Donkey Kong Country Returns, Tiki Buzzes can be defeated when a fighter jumps on them.
