Pride Landers

Pride Landers are the animals including lions and lionesses who live in the Pride Lands. The opposite of a Pridelander is an Outsider. The term, "Pridelander", is originally used by Kovu in The Lion King II: Simba's Pride, where he asks Kiara "Who are you, Pridelander?".

Information
The Pridelanders have been ruled by multiple kings and queens: Mohatu, Uru and Ahadi, Mufasa and Sarabi, Scar, and currently Simba and Nala. When Simba dies or abdicates his powers as king, the Pride Lands will be ruled by Kiara and her consort, Kovu.

Rare Physical Traits

 * Freckles are a very rare trait amongst the Pridelanders. Only one Pridelander lioness out of all the movies has had freckles.
 * Ear rims are a lesser trait of the Pridelanders. Only Sarabi and two other lionesses have been seen possessing them.
 * Outsider traits aren't a dominant trait, as only Scar and Kovu have been seen possessing them
 * Permanently extended claws have only been shown to be possessed by Scar, thus are not a common trait.
 * Green and blue eye colors have been observed in Sarafina and Scar, who have green, as well as Nala, whose eyes alternate between green and blue, but have appeared nowhere else.
 * Fully colored paws are a rare trait, just like the freckles. Only Scar's paws are completely colored. Everyone else in the pride have only their toes colored.

Trivia

 * The lionesses seem to take on the physical characteristics of their current queen or other important female characters.
 * As said in The Lion King, the lionesses are also responsible for hunting prey for the pride, to which they are called the "hunting party".
 * Some Pride Landers have been seen with Outsider traits in their concepts, including Mufasa, Simba, and Nala.
 * In some concepts, the Pridelanders believe in a deity called The Great Spirit.
 * The Pridelanders were once called the Ndona Lionesses when The Lion King was still KOTJ.
