'''Kloaks''' are undead [[Kremling]]s serving as part of the [[Kremling Krew]]. Kloaks only appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'', and are one of the few enemies from the game to not return in ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]''. They are floating green, buttoned waistcoats with skull buttons, a yellow undershirt, red cuffs, and a pair of glowing, red eyes beneath their red collar. Their coats are similar to the ones worn by [[Krook]]s. Kloaks attack by throwing objects at [[Diddy Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]], such as [[Crate]]s and [[Barrel]]s, or enemies like [[Spiny (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Spinies]] and [[Zinger]]s. However, some Kloaks may throw a useful item, like a [[Treasure Chest]] or [[Banana]]s. These enemies let out a menacing laugh as they pick out something to throw. Each Kloak throws a certain number of objects, and some Kloaks only throw one thing. After throwing something, the Kloak floats away, although some first swoop at the [[Kong]]s before leaving. A Kloak can be defeated from either having a projectile thrown at it, such as a [[Treasure Chest]], being [[jump]]ed on, a [[Team-up]] throw, or from an [[Animal Friend]]. Kloaks have the same defeated voice clip as [[Klinger]]s and [[Krook]]s. | '''Kloaks''' are undead [[Kremling]]s serving as part of the [[Kremling Krew]].

Kloaks appear in four levels. They first appear in [[Barrel Bayou (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Barrel Bayou]] and return in [[Bramble Scramble (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Bramble Scramble]], [[Ghostly Grove (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Ghostly Grove]], and lastly [[Screech's Sprint (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Screech's Sprint]].

In Barrel Bayou, there is a Kloak who throws down a Treasure Chest containing a [[kannonball]], which can only be opened by hitting the Kloak with the Chest. Aside from levels, a Kloak also appears in the end credits, where it is categorized as part of the "[[Kremling Kuthroats]]" class, which indicates they are [[Kremling]]s. | ||

In the [[Donkey Kong Country 2 (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version]], there is also a Kloak in the [[Funky's Flights (Bonus Game)|Funky's Flights]] mission [[Cool Sounds]], where it guards [[Funky Kong]]'s lost ghetto blaster deep in an ice cave. This Kloak attacks by throwing [[barrel]]s, and unlike other enemies, defeating it requires several shots from the [[Gyrocopter]], instead of just one. Kloaks were also given a different laugh, which is a stock sound effect from the Cartoon Trax Volume 1 sound effects library by The Hollywood Edge. The same laugh has also been used by [[Rare Ltd.]] in other ''Donkey Kong'' games, such as [[King K. Rool]] in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', and [[Kroc]] in the Game Boy Advance remake of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3 (Game Boy Advance)|Donkey Kong Country 3]]''. Additionally, if the player pauses the game as Kloak is defeated, its laugh can be heard in its normal manner, rather than getting deeper and slower. | In the [[Donkey Kong Country 2 (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version]], there is also a Kloak in the [[Funky's Flights (Bonus Game)|Funky's Flights]] mission [[Cool Sounds]], where it guards [[Funky Kong]]'s lost ghetto blaster deep in an ice cave.
