The Brothers Bear are a group of male bears whose homes and businesses are scattered around the Northern Kremisphere in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!. Dixie and Kiddy Kong need to trade various items between the bears for rewards, mostly Banana Birds.
In Donkey Kong Land III, there was only one bear in that game and his name was simply Bear according to the credits. Bear owned the Sheepy Shop around the Northern Kremisphere, where the Kongs can play a card game, pay two Bear Coins to hear a hint, or pay five Bear Coins to teleport to any other area in the World Map.
Barnacle Bear makes a reappearance in Donkey Konga 3, a Japan exclusive game.
Trivia
- In the Game Boy Advance remake of Donkey Kong Country 3, a new bear is added to the Brothers Bear family, this bear is named Bachelor.
- All of the Brothers Bear's names start with the letter "B" for Bear.
- Although they are all related, the exact relationship between all the bears is unclear, due to the fact that their ages and coloring vary. However, Benny and Björn are confirmed to be twins. They also happen to be the names of the two male members of the Swedish pop group ABBA; in the game, Benny says "My chair-lift is the safest route up the cliffs. So go on, Dixie, take a chance on me". "Take A Chance on Me" is an ABBA song!
- Also, the bears look completly different in the Game Boy Advance remake.
