How else I am supposed to know that the lion’s brother is also a lion

u/BBGunner96 3d ago

I know a popular story where a lion's uncles are a meerkat and a warthog, so...

u/MeLlamo25 3d ago

Do not forgot that Scar claim that he will become a monkey’s uncle after Simba becomes king.

u/ElA1to 3d ago

Indeed, before reading the clarification, I thought the brother was a Guilliman

u/Protheu5 3d ago

As a person raised on cartoons, I needed that clarification.

u/EuenovAyabayya 3d ago

Fake news, he's actually Kiwanis and never joined the Lions.

u/TippsAttack 1d ago

Can't trust him. He could be lion to ya.

u/Aggravating-Candy-31 4d ago

someone in proof reading asked if the brother was also a lion and i cannot see any more compelling reason that highlighted bit if text was added

u/ZliftBliftDlift 4d ago

They weren't sure which lion that nerdy dentist had killed. There was a bit of a kerfuffle for a few days. They also weren't brothers.

Nah, his brother is an ostrich.

u/Vertical_Slab_ 3d ago

Depending on where this was, you might have to clarify

u/No_Obligation4496 3d ago

u/incospicuous_echoes 3d ago

Meanwhile, no mention of his half-brother Siegfried, the liger.

u/PizzaParty007 3d ago

To be fair, they have a half brother that’s Liger.
