The Animals of Lion King in Real Life – Names, Facts, and Everything You Need To Know

Team StoryWeavers|September 28, 2019, 06:53 IST| 16

The beloved Disney live-action movie, The Lion King, has introduced audiences to a whole bunch of adorable, loving characters – Simba, Timon, Pumba, Mufasa, Rafiki and many more!

These characters sang, danced, laughed and taught us important lessons on friendship, kindness, and wisdom that are sure to become cherished memories.

Would you like to know how these animals live off the screen in the real African Savanna?

Let’s find out more about the real-life counterparts of these beloved characters and the lessons they can teach us from the jungle.

While these animals entertained us onscreen and can teach us some valuable lessons in real life, the truth is, many of them are endangered because of poaching and other human activities.

We share the earth with beautifully interesting fauna and it should be our duty to take care of them and learn from them as cohabitants of the same planet.

Have you taken part in any activities to save wildlife? Let us know in the comments.
