Zinger

Zingers are large wasps that appear in the Donkey Kong Country series. Zingers also made their cameo in Super Mario Bros: Warriors of the Mushroom Kingdom where they are from Honeyhive Hill in Barkwood Forest.

Appearance and Biology.

Zingers are large wasps that heavily resemble actual bees and appear much larger that normal wasps and bees, as well as having two large eyes instead of being compound-eyed. Zingers also have six legs and a back with the same colour-design as a normal bee, and have spikes which lead down from its back all the way to its stinger.

Strategy.

Zingers can be encuntered in Honeyhive Hill where they live anywhere across the area. But the freindly Bees and their queen, the Honey Queen, did not like the Zingers and couldn't defeat them because of their sharp stingers. Whenever Zingers see Mario, they will follow him and start to sting him, but Mario can only defeat them with a slash of his sword. Zingers can often be very annoying enemies but they are common around Honeyhive Hill and do not like the freindly Bees encountered there. Zingers were mostly stationary and could appear as many colours such as yellow, orange, pink, and red, but in the Mario game, Zingers only appear as the colour yellow.
