The '''Beetle'''<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20000229072052/http://www.nintendo.com:80/n64/donkeykong64/cc.html Donkey Kong 64 Banana Guide on Nintendo.com], ''Nintendo''. Retrieved November 24, 2014.</ref> is a large, green beetle in purple racing gear that appears in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''. She is raced twice, first by [[Tiny Kong]] in [[Angry Aztec]] and later by [[Lanky Kong]] in [[Crystal Caves]]. In each race, when either [[Kong]] wins, they are rewarded a [[Golden Banana]].

In Angry Aztec, Tiny can challenge the Beetle by using [[Mini Monkey]] and playing [[Saxophone Slam]] from a nearby [[Music Pad]]. This causes [[Squawks the Parrot|Squawks]] to appear, and he picks up Tiny and throws her into a tower with the Racing Beetle. The race involves Tiny and the Beetle racing down a large slide. When the race Starts, Tiny can kick the Beetle to slow her down, allowing Tiny to get a headstart. The Beetle is almost the width of the slide, making her hard to avoid. Tiny's objective is to first collect at least 50 [[DK Coin]]s before finishing the race. If the Beetle knocks into Tiny, she loses three DK Coins.

 

In Crystal Caves, Lanky has to race the Beetle, this time by using his [[OrangStand Sprint]].
