'''Gnawties''' are beaver creatures native to [[Kong Island]]. They make their first appearance in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]''. They are considered pests by [[Kong Family]] and [[Rambi]]'s natural enemies.

==Biology==
All Gnawties have huge eyes, toothy, black nose, yellow bellies, orange plaid tails and pink paws. They have different fur colors as: green, red, blue and yellow.

==History==
In ''Donkey Kong Country'', most Gnawties are used by the [[Kremling Krew]] to disrupt the [[Donkey Kong|DK]] & [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]]'s journey.<ref>''Donkey Kong Country'' Player's Guide, Nintendo, 1994, p. 13 - "'''''THE BADDIES:''' All baddies on the island are under King K. Rool's control. It was the Kremlings that stole Donkey Kong's banana hoard, but it's the combined efforts of baddies that are trying to stave off Donkey Kong's attempt to recover the bananas.''"</ref> The green Gnawties just walk around where they are easy to defeat and the red ones walk around on the temple millstones where they are invincible.<ref>"''Donkey Kong Country'' Instruction Booklet, Nintendo, 1994, p. 23 - "'''''RUINS:''' These monolithic ruins are now ruled by mlll-stone-rolling Gnawty beavers!''"</ref>

In ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', once again the Gnawties are used by the Kremling Krew to disrupt the journey of the Kong Family quintet along with other creatures from [[DK Isles]].<ref>''Donkey Kong 64'' Prima's Official Game Guide, Nintendo, 1999, p. 15 - "'''''ENEMIES:''' The DK crew has its work cut out for it in K. Rool's army of bad guys.''"</ref> Gnawties chase Kongs upon sight, but can be defeated by any attack. In Rambi's arena, blue Gnawties are worth 2 points and yellow ones are worth 10 points.

*<u>'''GBA Player's Guide'''</u> (page 16): ''Gnawtys are likely the weakest enemies you'll encounter. One jump on their head from Donkey or Diddy will flatten them for good. Gnawtys often travel in packs or drop from platforms overhead. Stop, slap and roll over the bad beavers to your little ape heart's delight.''
===''Donkey Kong 64''===
*<u>'''Prima Official Game Guide'''</u> (page 15): ''This creature will charge you for a Melon Slice, but you can knock it cold with one punch.''
