Don Bongo, the dinosaur-like enemy.

Don Bongo is a boss from Yoshi's Story. He is at the end of Stage 3-4: Frustration. Don Bongo mildly resembles a Spike, except that he has green skin with yellow spots, a yellow stomach with stripes and a big belly button. Don Bongo attacks by stomping back and forth across the room, and by causing pots and pans to rain down from the ceiling. To defeat Don Bongo, Baby Yoshi has to hit him in the lips three times.

Interestingly, Baby Yoshi does not lose any health if he touches Don Bongo; only the items falling down can hurt Baby Yoshi.

Don Bongo might have been the inspiration for Tubba Blubba, a giant Clubba from Paper Mario. Also, one may infer that the "don" in Don Bongo's name derives from the "don," the Spanish word for "lord." "Bongo" may refer to the sound of his footsteps, which resemble the sound of a low drum such as a timpani. Also, his name sounds like "Dodongo," another reptile-like creature from The Legend of Zelda.
