'''Ellie''' is an [[Animal Friend]] in the [[Donkey Kong (franchise)|''Donkey Kong'' franchise]] whose main appearance is in both ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''. She is the first Animal Friend to be a female. She is treated as something of a substitute for [[Rambi]] in that they are both heavy mammals used as the first stage's Animal Buddy, but unlike Rambi's simple charging- and contact-based movements and attacks, Ellie involves more strategy due to her strengths being less obvious and more situational. | '''Ellie''' is an [[Animal Friend]] in the [[Donkey Kong (franchise)|''Donkey Kong'' franchise]] whose main appearance is in both ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''.

She can also take out stronger enemies like [[Krumple|Krumples]] due to her weight. In addition, she can carry barrels with her trunk, and suck them towards her if they are out of reach by facing a barrel and holding {{button|snes|Y}}. | ||
