He'd recognize Pumbaa as easily as Alex can recognize Marty in the Madagascar films whether face, eyes, smell, or voice. He's close enough friends with Pumbaa to apologize to Pumbaa just like when Alex didn't have any idea his hunger was out of control because of first living at New York's small Zoo but was taught about how his species lived in the wild and apologized to Marty. Simba would ask other would could heal the warthog. Pumbaa would likely be sympathetic since species eat all day, after overcoming his emotion Pumbaa would even likely forgive Simba for whatever caused him to lose control. Cats don't rush while chasing prey they do their best to avoid injury.
