Leo the lion was the national mascot of Tigora, as he was born there. His parents were John and the more inbred Mira.
As in real life, Leo's rather fickle harem consists of lionesses like Luna, Cleo, Kitty, Marjorie and Chinchilla coloured Lydia. The first children, usually from Marjorie, are Bruno and Jack. Bruno however, got eaten by his mother at an early age while Jack survived becoming an adult. The succeeding children are mostly females like Lari, Marcia, Jann and Mie, as Lucas, Theo and Eric are in the minority. Marcia also got eaten by the same mother who ate Bruno as well. This also included Jack and Lyre's kids Chloe and Maximilian the second. Mie grew older and stayed to become her then boyfriend Donovan's mate and a mother of his sons Caesar, Casey and Horace.
The elephants led by Pagoola, though still cruel and antagonistic at times, are generally sympathetic if now more fleshed out thanks to values dissonance. Pagoola's older son Bizo and younger daughter Penny were sympathetic as well, due to science marching on.
He was Mabaya Phunt and Aroba's son in law who also had a wife named Kelly Phunt, in turn the somewhat younger sister of Tony Phunt, who has a partner named Shannon and two children named Ora and Wilma Phunt. They also have a much older sister in Tani Phunt, a prude and rather stuffy old lady who has a son named Romeo Phunt and an estranged mate named Bertrand. Mabaya's younger brother Moe will also appear, this time as a busybody guarding and digging off the abandoned remains of the village that Koba was born in.
There's also a Sitatunga named Tommy and a Meyer's brown parrot named Paul, who were both friends to Leo the Lion. A rose ringed parakeet named Trish appears as a messenger to Leo the Lion and his friends as well. Bucky the Waterbuck, Paul's younger siblings Pauline and Peck, and Jack the Emin's pouched rat were also his friends.
