Buzzies[1] are enemies in Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze and its port. They are encountered in later levels of Juicy Jungle, namely Jelly Jamboree and Beehive Brawl, as well as in Spinning Spines. These bees have big stubby bodies that end with a short sting that they use to attack. Their legs and wings are thin and small. Buzzies always seem grouchy, given their frowns and squinted eyes. Each Buzzy displays furrowed eyebrows and sharp mandible fangs protruding out the mouth. Buzzies fly around slowly and in a staggering manner. When the Kongs get near a Buzzy, it starts pursuing them, attempting to harm them. Some Buzzies are passive. The Kongs can defeat a Buzzy by jumping on it, using a Roll Attack, or throwing a barrel.
In Beehive Brawl, some Buzzies appear from out of their beehive houses to attack the Kongs, and arrays of larger Buzzies march over areas with wide chasms, carrying fruit slices covered with climbing grass. These provide transport over the chasms and help the Kongs go through the level. Due to the added weight, Buzzies steadily descend, unless the Kongs pound their fruit slices, which forces them to ascend.
