Line 40:
In ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'', Kong Island was usurped by [[Lord Fredrik]] where he summons an ice dragon and the Kongs were later removed from the island. Due to the takeover of the Snowmads, Kong Island was completely frozen where many bananas were being wasted, the water was completely frozen, old structures were expendable, layers of ice buried underground, snowflakes spreading and avalanche causing massive devastation. With the [[Snowmad]]s driven out, the island is retaken back by DK and the tropical climate has been restored.
