Rafiki is supported by Timon and Pumbaa, who contribute to the story with their unmistakable humor. We accompany the orphaned cub Mufasa, who is lost and alone until he meets the likeable heir to the throne, Taka. This fateful encounter sets in motion a great journey of an extraordinary group of outsiders in search of their destiny. Their cohesion is put to the test as they try to escape a deadly enemy.
