Help me find it! A small monkey, crocodiles, birds.

I remember it pretty well. Almost surely a one-screen handheld. You controlled a little monkey, and started in the bottom-left corner. You had to work your way right, then up, then left, avoiding the crocodiles below and the birds. Your goal was to have your dad released. He is in a 4-locks-cage. You get the keys one by one until he is out, then everything starts again.

Does anyone remember it?

Thanks!

Well, you are definitely describing Donkey Kong Jr.

Nintendo made small handheld Game & Watch versions too... Like these:

Dual-screen:

Handheld color (Panorama screen):

Possibly one of those?

Wow, thanks! It is exactly that, the small Nintendo Game & Watch...!

I'll try to find it second-hand, or maybe there is some emulator out there.

People are making Flash games (swf files), and I knew there was at least one of Donkey Kong Jr, so searching for Donkey Kong Jr swf gave me:
