Leo

Leo is a lion.

Backstory
Leo was born in the Desertlands during Momo's reign to Momo and Nita. Leo was destined as heir to the throne, but a big drought happened, his parents were killed by vultures and Leo ran away to the Pridelands, where he met Sarafina. Leo loved Sarafina because they looked alike.

Leo grew up with Sarafina, much to Scar's dissapointment, Scar wanted to be Sarafina's mate and not Leo. Leo and Sarafina had a daughter, Nala, whom they betrothed her to Simba when they were cubs. Leo was killed by Scar during the beginning of Scar's reign, leaving Nala fatherless.

Trivia

 * Unlike in The Lion King: Six New Adventures, Leo never met Kopa as Leo was killed long before Kopa was born.
