Donkey Kong from the popular video game is a gorilla. I base this solely off of the fact that he has no tail, a buff body shape, and a chest pounding habit.

Is DK married to Candy Kong?

Hmm, a toughie this one. Donkey Kong I know off Mario Kart, but Candy Kong isn't on there, so I think no. Even though their last names are the same, Candy Kong is more of a Chimp. Donkey Kong isn't a Donkey, a monkey! If that helps, good. Candy is a Chimp. Donkey Kong is a Monkey because, this is the story: when Nintendo Japan sent the fax to Nintendo in the US it said "monkey kong" BUT the fax machine messed up the M and it looked like a D hence "donkey kong" instead of "monkey kong" funny accident, but a true story.. and it suits better
