“ | I'm through with tuliza. And this whole forest! There's just one thing I want now. I want to get that Bunga! | ” |
–Mama Binturong, Mama Binturong |
Mama Binturong is an adult female elderly binturong who made her debut in her titular episode Mama Binturong. After she joins Makucha's army in the 2nd half of Season 3 she becomes the main antagonist of the season alongside Makucha.
Appearance[]
Mama Binturong's pelt on her chest is white, while the one on her body, tail, and head are black. Her paws are dark black and her ears are silver and white with furry hair on them. Her eyes are gray and yellow. She also has white whiskers and a mole on her face.
Personality[]
Mama Binturong acts like a mafia boss and uses her group of porcupines as enforcers to make other animals comply with her desires. She treats them as if they were her children, though her caring for them is only to maintain their loyalty to her. Her tendency to gather food and even steal it from other animals has earned her a bad reputation. Many inhabitants of the forest try to avoid having trouble with her because when she gets mad, she unleashes her porcupines on them and none of them want to be hurt by their quills.
Mama Binturong is quite intelligent and manages to create plans that work in her favor. From spying on the Lion Guard and the Night Pride, she's able to figure out their weaknesses and tells Makucha's Army to attack more often at sunrise to give the Army an advantage because the Night Pride would be exhausted from finishing their patrol. This strategy proves effective until Kion and the Lion Guard start to patrol the Tree of Life during the day so that the Night Pride can rest.
Mama Binturong is madly obsessed with tuliza and will do anything, even steal or hurt others, to keep her precious food just for herself. When Bunga used his stink to make all of her tuliza wither, she is devastated and decides she no longer has any desire for tuliza and instead decides to pursue a new goal in getting revenge on the honey badger. However, she did threaten a resident of the Tree of Life over his tuliza despite swearing it off, suggesting she is merely more concerned with her desire for revenge then her desire for more tuliza. She is also power-hungry because she laughs about the Tree of Life belonging to her and the other villains when they take over the Tree of Life in Triumph of the Roar.
