I was attacked when I was just a cub. I ran away after that. And, ever since, I've been trying to find my way home.
―Kopa[src]

Kopa was wandering outside the Tree of Life when he was attacked by Bhaaloo. After the Night Pride saw him, they took Kopa to the Tree of Life. There, Kopa revealed that he had ran away from his home as a cub and has been searching for his home since. As the Night Pride and Azaad try to help Kopa, he reveals he is from the Pride Lands and the son of Simba and Nala. Kion, though initially in disbelief, sees that Kopa is his brother, and promises to escort him home safely.

Later, Simba, Nala, and Kopa return, and call a meeting with Kiara and Kion. Simba, Nala, and Kopa explain that, when Kopa was young, he was attacked by Shenzi. Kopa escaped and ran away, but Simba and Nala believed Shenzi killed Kopa.
