“Outsiders aren't welcome here! These lagoons are just for us scrappy salvagers and no one else.”

—Stone tablet in Lagoon Layer,Donkey Kong Bananza

Salvager Monkeys (also parsed in lowercase) are a group of blue primates resembling spider monkeys who appear inDonkey Kong Bananza. They live in theLagoon Layer of theUnderground World, and primarily spend their time fishing forBanandium Gems and scrap metal using fishing rods with magnets attached to the line. Some wear blue fishing vests, while others wear green overalls along with fishing gloves and straw hats. They are watched over by theKong Elder.

The Salvager Monkeys are distrustful of outsiders, and treatDonkey Kong andOdd Rock coldly upon their arrival in the Lagoon Layer. However, they become accepting of the duo once they assist in unblocking a reservoir that had been sealed with aVoid Stake, and request their aid in unblocking the layer's water supply after it is plugged up byVoid Company.
