* AnimalisticAbomination: The River Lord Crocodiles are so impossibly old that they can still remember the times [[Everything'sBetterWithDinosaurs when dinosaurs ruled over Africa]]. Their huge frames overreach even the biggest of estimations for a nile crocodile, putting them into the same size category as the extinct ''Deinosuchus rugosus'' or ''Purussaurus brasiliensis''. So terrible is their might, so dreadful their mere presence, that nothing [[spoiler: short of a summoned lightning bolt of magical/divine nature]] is capable of piercing their eons-old hides, rendering them literal demigods meandering among their mortal kind.

* ShoutOut: "The Mountain Pride" with his King Malka and later his Son, Afua, are a reference to the Lions in Mt Tempest in IncarnateFirefly's Kopa's Legacy series.

** The Spotted Clan: The same hyena clan as seen in the movie. Shenzi, Banzai and Ed naturally count among its members, [[spoiler: with Shenzi eventually rising up to the rank of matriarch]].
** The Striped Clan: Not as powerful as the Black or Spotted Clan, but they can prove themselves to be a menace for both the Pridelands and their rivals.
** The Brown Clan: Least influential of all the 4 clans, to the point of being realtively irrelevant.

* HeinousHyenas: Outside the Pridelands, there exist a total of 4 different hyena clans, with 3 of them being based on real species and one being a fictional one. All of them are portrayed for the most part as vicious predators and scheming backstabbers.
** [[DarkIsEvil The Black Clan]]: Large, pitch-black [[Sadist bloodthirsty sociopaths]], which are the most dangerous type. Caliban, son of the matriarch, becomes one of Scar's arch-enemies.

* AcceptableBreaksFromCanon: Although it is perhaps technically true to suggest Scar "Destroyed" the Guard, the idea that he did so utterly in one fell swoop after they refused to assist him in his coup, is shown to be a fabrication. The truth is much more complicated.

* FiveManBand: Taka, Imani, Kasi, Nguvu and Jicho form this [[spoiler: Especially once the Lion Guard Forms in Book II]]

* ScavengersAreScum: Even the supposedly 'good guys' tend to have a low opinion of scavengers. Though this is generally reciprocated.
