Timber is a fictional character in Nintendo's Donkey Kong franchise, first appearing in Diddy Kong Racing. His parents left him in charge of their home island. Wizpig later invaded the island, prompting Timber to call upon the help of his friends who took on Wizpig's challenge to race for the island. He rides green vehicles with middle-class speed and acceleration. He controls very similar to Diddy Kong and is ideal for starter players. Timber has appeared in the Nintendo DS game Diddy Kong Racing DS. He seems to have an Australian-like accent in this game.
