Thurston is a male plains zebra who resides in the Pridelands. He is the leader of his herd. He is the father of Kwato and Mstari.


Description[]

Thurston has black and white stripes. He also has brown eyes. His snout and tail is black. His hooves are black too. He has a stocky build, with a long snout.

Personality[]

Thurston is a proud zebra, albeit somewhat dim-witted. He is easily spooked, cowardly, pusillanimous, and frightened, so he will run at even the slightest hint of danger. To make matters worse, he is also rather scatterbrained and forgetful, which has even caused him to forget where he lives, requiring the Lion Guard to lead him back safely (after initially becoming confused after Onoasks them to follow him, since, as Thurston pointed out, zebras cannot fly).[1]

He is also very bitter, easily offended, vituperative, uncomplimentary, and opprobrious when the subject turns to the edibility of his own species. [2] Thurston firmly believes that zebras are the tastiest creature living in the Pride Lands[3], and will become very resentful and arrogant towards anyone who dares say otherwise. He is somewhat of a narcissist, and credits himself as the reason that the Lion Guard are so successful in their battles.[4]

Thurston has also been shown to have a severe dislike of genets, due to their small stature, fur and long tails.[5]

Family[]

Sons: Kwato and Mstari
