'''Blue Hootzes''' are common enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]''. They look like small, blue owl creatures that wear livid-colored viking helmets with tiny horns. Due to the structure of the helmet, whose margins are descending towards their downward-facing beaks, Blue Hootzes always seem to have angry expressions. Their body structure is rather simplistic, being egg-shaped and having two small wings on each side. Unlike [[Hot Hootz]]es, which they share traits with, Blue Hootzes are always engulfed by dangerous blue flames that never go out unless the enemy is defeated.

Blue Hootzes either hover stationarily in the air or fly around in set patterns, and usually appear in flocks of two or more. As they are permanently covered in flames, they are difficult to defeat, being harmful and impervious to even Rambi the Rhino or Cranky Kong's Cane Bounce. The only way to defeat a Blue Hootz is from a distance with a barrel or another throwable object. A Kong POW can also be performed in their presence to defeat them. Blue Hootzes function similarly to Zingers, Buzzes and Flaming Tiki Buzzes from previous Donkey Kong Country games.
