Tikiti Melons

Tikiti Melons are a type of fruit that grow in the Pride Lands.

Information
Tikiti Melons are used primarily as a water supply for the elephants during the Dry Season, when the water supply runs out. If there are not enough Tikiti Melons, the elephants may not make it through the Dry Season.

The Bite of Kenge
Janja, Cheezi and Chungu are in the Pride Lands, trying to steal a supply of Tikiti Melons intended to help the elephants make it through the Dry Season. But before they can do so, the Lion Guard arrive, and quickly take back the Tikiti melons from the hyenas. After saving nearly all of them, the Guard wonder how the hyenas found the patch, but also decide that they should stick around for a while in case they return, much to Bunga's disappointment.

When Scar hears of their findings, he orders Ushari to get his friend, Kenge, to help the hyenas obtain the melons.

After Kenge paralyses Kion, Fuli and Beshte, he and the hyenas move into the patch and start to roll the melons out. But Bunga and Ono arrive to stop them. Once the enemies are seemingly down, Ono lands next to Bunga, but is unable to ascend quick enough to avoid Kenge's bite. When Bunga tries to save him, he too is bitten. With no one to stop them, Kenge and the hyenas continue.

Makini teams up with Bunga, having heard how important the melons are to the elephants during the dry season. While Bunga distracts Kenge and the hyenas as they pass through Embamba Canyon, Makini hurriedly moves the melons behind a nearby rock. When she has finished, she is eventually joined by Bunga, and Kion arrives to perform the Roar of the Elders. With the danger gone, Makini and the Lion Guard roll the melons back to the patch, with Bunga commenting that whilst he's okay with dealing with Kenge and the hyenas alone, taking the melons back was another matter entirely, causing everyone to laugh.
