After the lion king is shot by hunters, the other animals of the jungle decide to work together to raise his orphaned lion cubs, including his favorite son, Simba. Simba and his siblings end up being raised by a wolf along with a deer named Buckshot (changed from Bimbo to avoid being a walking copyright infringement), who had also previously lost his parents to hunters. It turns out the tiger Shere Khan was the one who arranged the death of Simba's father so he could be the king of the jungle, and he wishes to capture Simba with the help of his minions.

The lion king is killed in front of his cubs by assassins for the fault of Shere Khan, the tiger who wants to usurp his throne.

After the King's death, Simba and his sisters are adopted by a pack of wolves, the same ones who had once raised Mowgli. They have also adopted a deer named Buckshot.

Simba tries to catch a rabbit, but his tender age and lack of hunting skills cause him to fail miserably. Buckshot tells him that he mustn't eat rabbits, and takes his friend to a field where they eat strange grass. The grass has a powerful hallucinogenic effect on them, and they imagine themselves to be great warriors surrounded by ghosts.
Episode 3The Sixth Sense23 min
Bagheera takes it upon himself to teach Simba how to hunt. The lion cub puts all his heart into the lessons. He then senses that Bimbo is in danger, and asks the leopard if they can interrupt the lesson to go look for his friend. His timely intervention saves Bimbo from the monkeys, whose aim was, of course, to hand him over to Shere Khan. Later, Simba learns that he mustn't stare at the sun.
