Lanky Kong is an orangutan Kong and an ally of the Kong Family. He is described as "a twisted twig on a distant branch of the family tree" and non-biological distant cousin. He, along with Tiny and Chunky Kong, first appeared in Donkey Kong 64. He is currently voiced by Kentaro Tone but was previously voiced by Chris Sutherland in Donkey Kong 64.
Because of his name and orange fur, he bears a resemblance to the Manky Kongs, which is a clan he may be related to. Despite his lack of style, grace, and him having a funny face, he has the longest arms of any Kong in the Donkey Kong series.
