    Okay, let's clear up some things here.
    1. K Rool originally had a tail, but in his latest iterations he's not got a tail. Besides, a lack of a tail lets you admire his impressive glutes all the more.
    2. Donkey Kong only has 4 toes because... I... I don't know. For some reason I was fully convinced that he always had 4 toes and no amount of "fact" is going to change my mind.
    3. I don't have a third point, but only listing two things felt lazy.
