Gnawty

Gnawty appeared in 1994 video game called Donkey Kong Country. Gnawties are lazy-eyed beavers and basic enemies who first appear in Donkey Kong Country. Their name is a portmanteau of the words "naughty" and "gnaw". In Donkey Kong Country, Gnawties had a green fur color, and would later be recolored to light blue starting in Donkey Kong 64. However, the Gnawty appearing on the original box art of Donkey Kong Country is an off-blue gray color.

Neeks and Sneeks from Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest and Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!, respectively, display the same behavior and weaknesses as Gnawties. This is also the case for Awks from Donkey Kong Country Returns and Dozies from Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze.
