'''Slippas'''<ref>''Donkey Kong Country'' Nintendo Player's Guide, [[Media:DKC Guide 16-17.jpg|Page 17]].</ref> are snake enemies which appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land]]''. They are red with black stripes and resemble the real world {{wp|coral snake}}.

==History==
===''Donkey Kong Country''===
[[File:I-Slippa.png|thumb|left|A Slippa holding a "I" letter in the [[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Color)|Game Boy Color version]] of ''Donkey Kong Country'']]
[[File:Reptile Rumble Slippas.png|thumb|The Kongs jump over a few Slippas in Reptile Rumble]]
In their debut appearance, ''Donkey Kong Country'', Slippas appear in four levels: [[Reptile Rumble]], [[Millstone Mayhem]], [[Elevator Antics]], and [[Misty Mine]]; all of them are subterranean except Millstone Mayhem. Slippas move by quickly slithering on the ground. [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] can defeat Slippas by using any attack, including rolling, jumping, or throwing a [[barrel]] at them. When a Slippa is defeated, it makes a hissing noise. In Misty Mine, there are some [[black drum]]s that release an indefinite number of Slippas.

In the boss level [[Boss Dumb Drum]], Slippas are the second pair of enemies that [[Dumb Drum]] releases.

In the [[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version]], the Kongs can obtain a [[photograph]] of Slippa by rolling into three of them in a row.

===''Donkey Kong Country'' novel===
A single Slippa appears as a minor antagonist in the ''[[Donkey Kong Country (novel)|Donkey Kong Country]]'' novel. As the Kongs explore the Abandoned Mines, Slippa and [[Army]] ambush the group. Slippa proclaims that "thessse minesss are oursss" and attempts to attack [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]], but Diddy stomps him with a double jump. Slippa then escapes back into the darkness.

===''Donkey Kong Land''===
[[File:Riggin' Rumble.png|thumb|Donkey Kong encounters Slippas slithering down ropes in Riggin' Rumble]]
Slippas reappear in ''[[Donkey Kong Land]]'', where they have slightly different role than in ''Donkey Kong Country''. They appear in many more levels and in a wider variety of environments, including mines, jungles, and skyscrapers. Slippas sometimes pop out of [[Basket of snakes|baskets]].

In [[Riggin' Rumble]], Slippas slither down the ropes until they reach the bottom. These Slippas are invincible, and even if either Kong rolls into them, they are injured by the Slippa.

Slippas appear in fifteen levels:

*[[Jungle Jaunt]]
*[[Freezing Fun]]
*[[Simian Swing]]
*[[Deck Trek]]
*[[Tire Trail]]
*[[Riggin' Rumble]]
*[[Tricky Temple]]
*[[Snake Charmer's Challenge]]
*[[Mountain Mayhem]]
*[[Spiky Tire Trail]]
*[[Kong Krazy]]
*[[Construction Site Fight]]
*[[Fast Barrel Blast]]
*[[Skyscraper Caper]]
*[[Oil Drum Slum]]
