Ticker

Tickers are overgrown termite baddies found mainly on Mumbo's Mountain. They inhabit a gigantic termite mound known as Ticker's Tower located just downhill from the village where Mumbo's Skull is, and it can easily be seen from any point in the world. Banjo and Kazooie can enter the mound; however, the slopes leading to the upper levels are far too steep even for the Talon Trot to tackle, so they must enlist Mumbo Jumbo's help. Mumbo transforms Banjo into a termite, allowing him to climb the slippery slopes within the mound. While Tickers wear no clothing themselves, they have an eye for Termite Banjo's shorts and backpack, and will attempt to bully him out of them when he passes by.

In addition to Mumbo's Mountain, one Ticker can be found just outside the world entrance in Gruntilda's Lair once Banjo and Kazooie exit the world for the first time. There are also three Tickers inside the large Christmas tree in Freezeezy Peak.
