He is then berated by Scar for mentioning Mufasa (as Scar had banned anyone from mentioning his brother's name in his presence). Years later, Zazu is seen locked up in a ribcage and forced to entertain Scar. That night, following Mufasa's death and Simba's self-exile, Zazu is seen comforting Sarabi as Scar tells the pride that both Mufasa and Simba perished in the stampede, before announcing himself as the king and allows the hyenas into the Pride Lands much to Zazu's horror. However, Scar (who along with Shenzi, Banzai and Ed, planned the stampede to kill both Mufasa and Simba in order to become king), knocks him out, before killing Mufasa. As Mufasa dives into the stampede, Zazu suggests to Scar about going back for help. Zazu tells the cub that Mufasa is on the way, before going back to inform Mufasa (who has arrived at the gorge with Scar) of Simba's position. Zazu flies on ahead and into the gorge and finds Simba clinging to a tree. Just then, Scar arrives and tells Mufasa that a stampede is in the gorge and Simba is there. The next day, Zazu is out with Mufasa and notices dust coming out of the gorge, meaning that wildebeest herd are on the move, which Mufasa finds odd. Later, after saving the cubs from the hyenas, Mufasa tells Zazu to take Nala home while he teaches Simba a lesson. Though not seen, it is possible that Zazu ended up being blasted back to the Pride Lands before finding Mufasa and telling him that the hyenas were going to harm Simba and Nala. They capture Zazu and put him in a geyser, blasting him into the air like a rocket. Just then, Shenzi, Banzai, and Ed arrive and try to eat the trio. However, Simba and Nala are actually planning to go to the Elephant Graveyard and are able to escape from Zazu by singing "I Just Can't Wait to be King".Īt the Elephant Graveyard, Zazu tries to stop the cubs from checking the big elephant's skull. During the journey, Zazu tells the cubs that they are betrothed, meaning one day they will be married, much to their disgust. Later that day, Queen Sarabi assigns Zazu to watch over Simba and his friend Nala on their journey to the watering hole to avoid getting lost. Zazu is then tasked by Mufasa to take Simba back to Pride Rock. Just then, a gopher appears and tells Zazu about hyenas in the Pride Lands, which the latter tells Mufasa. During the song, he sings about what animals do, like in the scrapped song "To Be King"). (In the 2002 IMAX re-release, Zazu sings his signature song "The Morning Report". He explains about the animals until he is pounced by Simba, who was being given a pouncing lesson by Mufasa.
He is later seen months later giving news to Mufasa in the morning. When Mufasa wonders what to do about Scar, Zazu jokes that Scar would make a "very handsome throw rug". After Scar leaves, Zazu tells Mufasa that there's one (two in Zazu's case) in every family who manage to ruin special occasions. After the mouse escapes, an annoyed Scar tries to eat Zazu, but is stopped by Mufasa who confronts Scar over missing Simba's presentation. He then tells Scar that Mufasa is on his way to question him on why he was not at the ceremony. He berates Scar for playing with an innocent mouse whilst attempting to eat it. Later that day, he goes to an area of Pride Rock where Mufasa's younger brother Scar is.
Zazu first appears when he reaches Pride Rock and bows to King Mufasa during Prince Simba's presentation.
