Capture Kongs can collect as many Minis as they please and, in fact, can end the level in failure if all the Minis are trapped. Capture Kongs walk back and forth across level terrain, including spikes, but cannot jump.

Template:Species-infobox Capture Kongs[1][2][3] are gray Mini Donkey Kongs found in Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis, Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again!, Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!, Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move, and Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars. If a Mini Mario touches one, the Capture Kong will capture it, and put it in the sack on its back. The player cannot use that Mini Mario anymore, unless a Fire Mini Mario burns the Kong or a Mini Mario hits it with a Hammer. However, doing this will only stun it temporarily.

Capture Kongs can collect as many Minis as they please and, in fact, can end the level in failure if all the Minis are trapped. Capture Kongs walk back and forth across level terrain, including spikes, but cannot jump.

In Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move they get a slight redesign. The "C" on their ties are changed to a "W" and the sack on their backs are replaced with a barrel. The red eyes are also noticeably bigger.
