Snipers are arthropod enemies that appear in Donkey Kong for Game Boy. They make their first appearance in Stage 2-1 of the Forest. Sniper foes display round abdomens, adorned with peculiar plate appendages; they also feature common arthropod eyes on their short and intent heads.
Snipers have the ability to cling to any surface, thusly marching up walls and ceilings at a constant speed. They always follow the direction up front and never turn back. This behavior can also be seen in Faiachū, Fireball enemies introduced in the previous world, as well as Dotties, ladybug enemies introduced in the same level as Snipers. However, unlike Dotties, Snipers can hurt Mario upon contact. Likewise, they cannot be defeated. In Stage 4-6 of the Jungle, there are fast-moving Snipers.
