'''Tiki Zings''' are enemies first appearing in the game ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]''. They are wooden, circular enemies with an angry-looking face on their front side. They have seven, sharp wood blades attached to their exterior. These enemies can only be defeated with [[Rambi]] or the use of a [[barrel]]. Otherwise, these enemies are invincible and can only be avoided by jumping over or ducking under them. Tiki Zings usually appear in groups and act as obstacles rather than enemies. They usually appear in places that require timed jumps and timed [[Barrel Cannon]] firings. Larger versions called [[Big Zing]]s appear in [[Wigglevine Wonders]]. There are also some [[Flaming Tiki Zing]]s, which are immune to even Rambi's attacks.
'''Tiki Zings'''<ref>Knight, Michael. ''Donkey Kong Country Returns'' Prima Official Game Guide. Page 25.</ref> are enemies that appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]'' and members of the [[Tiki Tak Tribe]].
 
Tiki Zings are wooden, circular enemies with an angry expression on their face. They have seven, sharp wood blades attached to their exterior. Tiki Zings often appear in groups and can only be defeated with [[Rambi]]. Otherwise, [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] must avoid these enemies by jumping over or ducking beneath them. Tiki Zings most often appear in areas requiring both timed jumps and timed blasts out from [[Barrel Cannon]]s.
 
Tiki Zings have a [[Tiki Zing (big)|big variant]] in [[Forest (Donkey Kong Country Returns)|Forest]], a [[Tiki Zing (Foggy Fumes)|silhouetted variant]] in [[Foggy Fumes]], and an [[Fireball (Tiki)|inflamed variant]] in [[Precarious Plateau]].

==Trivia==
*Their subname, "Zing" may come from [[Zinger]], a bee-like enemy in the previous ''Donkey Kong Country'' games, as they serve a similar purpose of acting as hazards.
* Tiki Zings bear a resemblance to Baby Polish, a smaller version of an enemy called Polish from ''[[wikipedia:Cave Story|Cave Story]]''.
