A Barrel Shield is a type of shield in the two Donkey Kong games, Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble and Donkey Kong Land III.
During the tree levels of the two games, the heroes will be attacked by the pesky Minkies, throwing nuts at them. In times like this, they might find the rare, but useful, Barrel Shields. While these shields move up and down along ropes, the Kongs can climb behind them for protection. Though this can be a big help at times, the Barrel Shield can move in the opposite direction suddenly, leaving the Kongs as an open target for the Minkies. Nevertheless, as long as the heroes manage to stay behind the barrel-shaped shield, they can avoid the Minkies' nuts at all times.
