Squeaks the Parrot is a purple parrot and Animal Buddy that appeared in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble. Squeaks is featured in two levels, "Buzzer's Barrage" and "Low-G Labyrinth". Squeaks can use his claws to pick up barrels and drop them on the ground to hit enemies. When using Squeaks, Kiddy and Dixie will hold on to his claws, which means if Squeaks gets hit one Kong will fall off his claws. Like all animal buddies Squeaks is only playable until he reaches a "No Animal Buddy" sign, or in this case, a "No Squeaks" sign.
Name Origin
The true name of this animal buddy is unknown; however, popular fanon states the character's name is "Squeaks". This name was derived from Swanky Kong’s trivia game. One question asked “What is the name of your parrot buddy?” and the possible answers were "Squawks", "Flapper", and "Squeaks". Since then, "Squeaks" has been atributed to the unnamed purple parrot, while "Flapper" is used to designate the unnamed blue parrot from Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest.
