'''Squitter''' is an [[Animal Friend]] first appearing in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' He is a large orange-and-black haired spider who wears four pairs of orange-white shoes. While most real-world spiders produce silk from their backsides, Squitter is able to shoot it from his mouth. However, members of the spider family Scytodidae are actually able to spit harmful venom-infused silk from their chelicerae, and Squitter even resembles these spiders, as both have an orange coloration with dark spots, though the similarity is coincidental.<ref>{{cite|author=@WinkySteve|language=en|date=February 25, 2019|url=x.com/WinkySteve/status/1100062350990815232?s=20|title=No internet in those days to research the finer points of spitting spiders, so we just made stuff up. Or looked in a book for pictures. Can you imagine that, having to look in a book for pictures?
