Blurb:

The Pride Lands is a fictional kingdom ruled by generations of one lion family in the Lion King universe created by The Walt Disney Company. The geographically bound territory, under the rule of a lion family, claims to exist under the overarching principle of Circle of Life. According to the Lion King Fan Wiki (2019), this concept involves, ‘respecting all the creatures so that nature can follow its natural course’. This paper explores the enforced details of the actual food rules present and enforced in the Lion King universe and if they benefit all creatures in the universe equally.
