'''Manky Kongs'''<ref>''Donkey Kong Country'' Nintendo Player's Guide, [[Media:DKC Guide 16-17.jpg|Page 16]].</ref> are long-armed orangutans found in the game ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]''. Their names may derive from the British slang term "manky", meaning "dirty" while also playing on the word's similarity to "monkey".
 
Manky Kongs are semi-common enemies found mostly in the later levels of the game. Manky Kongs attack [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] by hurling [[barrel]]s at them in continuous pattern. Donkey and Diddy must avoid these barrels and jump on a Manky Kong's head to defeat it (it can also be defeated by hitting it with a [[Steel Keg]]).
 
Manky Kongs first appear in the level [[Orang-utan Gang]]. There, they attack the [[Kong]]s from their spots located on the treetops of the jungle. In later levels, they appear in high places for throwing the barrels, acting as obstacles.
 
Aside from the various remakes of ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'', Manky Kongs have not appeared again, though another orangutan named [[Lanky Kong]] appears in the game ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''.
