Bopapodami are hippo-like "enemies" that appear in Donkey Kong Country Returns. They only appear in the Forest area of the game in very few levels. They always seem to have a happy expression on their face. They are minor obstacles that the Kongs must jump on in order to get through gaps the Kongs can't jump across. But they have to be careful, since they can only jump on the Bopapodamus a certain amount of times until it faints and falls into the abyss, killing the Kongs along with it. If the Kongs do not make direct contact with the Bopapodami's head, it will simply swat away one of the Kongs, causing them to lose a life.

Trivia

  • While the Bopapodamus s cosidered an enemy, it can also be seen as a kind of "Animal Buddy", as it helps the player jump over large gaps, plus it seems happy to help the Kongs out.
    • However, it can hurt the player if he/she jumps below its head.
