| Benny has a minor role, more than the other Brothers Bear, as he does not have a problem requiring [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong]]'s help to resolve, or is a key for solving a puzzle. He allows the [[Kong]]s to use his chairlift service at no cost, which the Kongs are required to use to cross over the lake and continue to the next level. | | '''Benny''' is a member of the [[Brothers Bear]] who appears in the game ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]''.

| | Benny assists [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] in their journey by allowing them to use his chairlift at no charge to cross over [[Barbos]]' lake in Razor Ridge, which connects the levels [[Buzzer Barrage]] and [[Kong-Fused Cliffs]]. Unlike the other bears, Benny has no real problem that the [[Kong]]s can help him with, nor does he have possession of a [[Banana Bird]] or hold the key to solving a puzzle. |
