The King

In the remote plains of Namiri, where the wind sweeps across tall grass and kopjes rise like ancient fortresses, Pretty Boy moves with a quiet, steady grace. The inseparable brother of Grumpy, he forms part of a powerful male coalition that dominates the territory around Zebra Kopje, one of the most strategic areas in the Eastern Serengeti.

Unlike Grumpy’s rough temperament, Pretty Boy stands out for his calm demeanor and natural elegance. With a lighter mane and a slightly slimmer build, his nickname reflects not just his appearance, but also the composed way he navigates the landscape. Yet beneath that quiet exterior lies a strong, territorial, and determined lion.
