=== Time among humans (Donkey Kong Circus, Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong Jr, Donkey Kong 3, Donkey Kong Jr Math) ===
Donkey Kong's story started in the early 1980's with the original DK known as Donkey Kong Senior and his son Donkey Kong Junior, back when the Kongs were owned by a former carpenter named [[Mario]], who was a bit abusive back then. Mario decided to make Donkey Kong balance on barrels in a circus act while juggling pineapples and avoiding fireballs. Ultimately, the act was a success for Mario, but the Kongs soon escaped captivity. While Junior went into hiding, Papa DK kidnapped Mario's girlfriend Pauline and took her up one of the construction sites in the city where Mario and Pauline lived. Mario had to dodge the barrels that DK threw at him, and was forced to balance on before hand in the aforementioned circus act, in order to make it to the top. Eventually he did, and Papa DK was brought down the hard way, while Mario and Pauline were reunited. Soon after, Mario used Papa DK as bait to try and capture Junior, but the little gorilla proved to be more trouble than his father, as he avoided all the birds and snap-traps and other things Mario sent his way as he went on to rescue his father. Junior was successful, and he and his father left the human world and departed to find a place to find their own. However, Papa DK made a side stop at a jungle-like greenhouse owned by one Stanley the Bugman. Stanley soon ousted the Senior Kong, and they continued on their way, even though they stopped to teach Junior basic mathematics in order to get further in life.
