History

Never Judge a Hyena by Its Spots

Thurston mentions the Ukuni Woods when asking where Flat Ridge Rock is located.

The Rise of Makuu

The Lion Guard enter Ukuni Woods having heard the panicked cries of an animal in danger. Once they get close enough, Ono is disappointed to see that it is, in fact, a Hyrax

stuck inside a thorn bush. Bunga attempts to get him out, though Fuli reminds him that he would be dragging him through the bush and hurting him in the process. Bunga suggests Kion uses the Roar, though Fuli reminds him that Pim the hyrax will get injured in the process. Kion points out that they can just pull the thorns aside, to which Bunga gets started. As Bunga holds the thorns back, Fuli rushes in and takes him out.

Pim is very attached to a snakeskin as pointed out by Fuli, to which Ono explains that he's doing it to mask his own scent with the snakeskin so that he can avoid being detected by other snakes. However, Ushari is right behind him and promptly puts him in his mouth. Bunga rescues the Pim and throws Ushari away, and Beshte dodges the throw. Pim hugs his savior. However, Pim is immediately put off by Bunga's scent and runs away screeching. Despite this, Bunga takes it as a compliment. Beshte meanwhile is covered in flowers, which have caused him to become sticky, much to Ono's worry. As Beshte mentions that he needs a bath, Ono points out that Bunga could use one too. The team leave Ukuni Woods and move on to Big Springs.
