Information

They are not just any lions. They are the Outsiders!

Rafiki, Lions of the Outlands

The Outsiders, also known as Zira's Pride, are a pride of lions that once lived in the Pride Lands, but because being loyal followers of Scar they were banished into the Outlands by King Simba. There are twelve known members of the pride, including its leader, Zira and her children Nuka, Vitani and Kovu.

Sometime during the Lion Guard's absence, the Outsiders and Simba's Pride go to war, ultimately ending in the union between the two prides and the pride becoming one big family again.

History[]

Prior to The Lion Guard[]

Despite Scar's terrible leadership of the Pride Lands, several lionesses held loyalty to Scar, including their leader, Zira. After Scar's death following his battle with Simba, Zira, her family, and her followers still believed Scar to be the rightful king. As a result, Simba had no choice but to banish them from the Pride Lands to the Outlands, where they, under Zira's leadership, plotted their revenge.

Lions of the Outlands[]

The Outsiders took over a watering hole belonging to Jasiri and her clan and refused to share it. Desperate, Jasiri went to the Pride Lands and asked her friend and Simba's son, Kion to help her. Believing that it's just a misunderstanding, Kion agrees to talk to the lions.

Kion captured

After learning that Kion is Simba's son and leader of the Lion Guard, Zira takes him to a cave to talk privately about her knowledge of the Roar of the Elders, as she knew Scar also once had it. After the rest of the Outsiders arrive, Zira tells Kion that she knew Scar lost the Roar when he used it against his fellow lions and attempts to get Kion to side with the Outsiders. She also tells Kion that if it hadn't been for Simba, Scar would still be King. Kion replies that Scar was never the true King, which results in Zira sending her lionesses upon him. Eventually, Jasiri and the rest of the Lion Guard came to Kion's aid and fight off the Outsiders.

The Outsiders' new home

After being reminded by Bunga that Scar had actually lost the Roar due to using it for evil instead of against other lions, Kion tells Zira that as long as he's around, she isn't welcome in the Pride Lands or Outlands, before using the Roar to blast the Outsiders away to the Termite Mounds.

Trivia[]

  • When Vitani forms her Lion Guard, the four members are shown to be Outsiders. The members were never shown in Lions of the Outlands, and the members of the pride that were in the episode do not make an appearance in Return to the Pride Lands. However those lionessses can be shortly seen in The Lion King 2: Simba's Pride when Vitani leaves her mother and the Outsiders behind to join Kiara and Simba's Pride to make peace with her enemies.
