'''Cling Cobras''' are cobra-like enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]'', found in the [[Forest (Donkey Kong Country Returns)|Forest]] world. They cling on to grassy areas, waiting to slither into [[Donkey Kong|Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]]. This makes it harder for the [[Kong]]s to advance. They may even make the two Kongs lose their balance, causing them to fall down from the grassy area they are holding onto and into a pit, causing them to lose a life. Their entire body appears to be yellow except for their brown eyes, and they possess large, sharp teeth in their mouth.
