'''Sea Urchins'''<ref>von Esmarch, Nick, and Cory van Grier. ''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 14.</ref> are large-eyed purple {{wp|sea urchin}}s and aquatic enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'' and its [[Nintendo Switch]] [[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Nintendo Switch)|port]]. Due to their spikes, the [[Kong]]s will take damage upon touching them. Sea Urchins can only be defeated by [[Cranky Kong]]'s cane. They usually appear in groups, moving about individually or by the force of water currents.


Sea Urchins most often appear in levels of [[Sea Breeze Cove]], although they first appear in [[Lost Mangroves]]' boss stage, [[Big Top Bop]], where [[Pompy]] occasionally throws Sea Urchins onto the stage. When this occurs, the Sea Urchin bounces along the ground a few times before retreating back into the water. In [[Fugu Face-Off]], the boss level of Sea Breeze Cove, [[Fugu]] spits out Sea Urchins as projectiles.
'''Sea Urchins''' are purple, spiky aquatic enemies with large eyes appearing in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]''. Due to their spikes, they cannot be touched, and can only be defeated using [[Cranky Kong]]'s cane. They are usually found in groups, moving about on their own or by the force of water currents.


These enemies are not to be confused with other urchin-like balls encountered in the game. The appearance of those is closer to that of real life sea urchins, as they lack eyes and seem more rigid. They can only be destroyed when found above the water, such as in [[Rockin' Relics]], using a [[Cane Bounce]].
Sea Urchins are most commonly found underwater in [[Sea Breeze Cove]], although they first appear in the [[Lost Mangroves]]' boss stage, Big Top Bop, where [[Pompy]] occasionally throws Sea Urchins onto the stage, which bounce along it a few times before retreating into the water. In the boss stage of Sea Breeze Cove, Fugu Face-Off, [[Fugu]] spits out Sea Urchins as projectiles.
