The first appearance of Eddie on the show was in "[[Barrel, Barrel, Who's Got the Barrel]]". In this episode, [[Bluster Kong]] steals the [[Crystal Coconut]] in an attempt to impress [[Candy Kong]] and promptly loses it in a barrel which is shipped to [[Funky's Flights]]. Funky takes the barrel on board his plane and ends up losing it in the [[Gorilla Glacier|White Mountains]], where it is found by Eddie. [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy]] come looking for the coconut and discover Eddie bashing it with his club; they then trade him a matchstick for it and leave. Unfortunately, due to complications involving Bluster Kong and [[Klump (character)|Klump]], the Kongs end losing the coconut once more and it briefly returns to Eddie's possession before it is taken by some [[Kritter]]s and given to [[King K. Rool]]; in the end, the Kongs eventually reclaim the coconut.

The episode "[[I Spy with My Hairy Eye]]" shows that, like how Eddie's club-banging stems from his anger, Eddie's anger comes from loneliness.

Eddie the Mean Old Yeti.

Eddie the Mean Old Yeti, or just Eddie the Yeti or Eddie for short, is a recurring character on the Donkey Kong Country animated series. Eddie's model is an obvious recolor of Donkey Kong's, as the two are identical besides their fur colour and clothes. He is voiced by Andrian Truss.

The first appearance of Eddie on the show was in "Barrel, Barrel, Who's Got the Barrel". In this episode, Bluster Kong steals the Crystal Coconut in an attempt to impress Candy Kong and promptly loses it in a barrel which is shipped to Funky's Flights. Funky takes the barrel on board his plane and ends up losing it in the White Mountains, where it is found by Eddie. Donkey Kong and Diddy come looking for the coconut and discover Eddie bashing it with his club; they then trade him a matchstick for it and leave. Unfortunately, due to complications involving Bluster Kong and Klump, the Kongs end losing the coconut once more and it briefly returns to Eddie's possession before it is taken by some Kritters and given to King K. Rool; in the end, the Kongs eventually reclaim the coconut.

Eddie's next appearance was in the episode "Cranky's Tickle Tonic", in which the enraged banging of his club has gotten so loud that all the inhabitants of Kongo Bongo Island can't get any sleep. To stop him, Cranky and Funky Kong create a potion which will give Eddie a case of the chuckles, although King K. Rool (having come up the mountain to shut Eddie up himself) consumes the tonic instead, although his subsequent laughing fit manages to cheer Eddie up, and he stops incessantly banging his club.

After these two main appearances, Eddie's role in the show was reduced slightly. In the episode "The Big Chill Out" Eddie is shown to be an employee for Donkey and Diddy's Coconut Chill business. Eddie also briefly appears in the episode "Ape-Nesia" where he is seen complaining after an amnesia struck Donkey Kong stole his favorite club. In "I Spy with My Hairy Eye", Eddie falls in love with K. Rool's Candy Clone, and it is revealed that the anger responsible for his club-banging stems from loneliness. In the episode "It's a Wonderful Life" (based on the movie of the same name), Eddie takes on the form of Donkey Kong's guardian angel.

While he does not appear in it, the episode "Follow That Coconut" mentions him, revealing that he has a journal in which he has written down a genius soccer play Cranky Kong once described to him.

Eddie the Mean Old Yeti makes his final appearance in "Message in a Bottle Show". In this episode, the ape is invited to a banquet to remember the times with Donkey Kong. At the banquet, Eddie announces that he thinks Donkey Kong is "cool," and then shows flashbacks of him and the ape.
