The Zuberi River

The Zuberi River is the main source of water in the Pride Lands.

The Lion King
The Zuberi River is first seen in the Circle of Life opening sequence. During this time, it is still healthy and fresh, and stretches from horizon to horizon. This picturesque appearance is soon withered by Scar's reign and the subsequent terrible famine that sweeps the land, killing animals and plant species alike. Under Simba's rule, the river is returned to its former glory.

The Lion King II: Simba's Pride
The Zuberi River is once more seen from Pride Rock, snaking across the expanse of the Pride Lands.

A Tale of Two Brothers
During a terrible drought, the Zuberi River is one of the last sources of water left in the Pride Lands. Late one night, while Rafiki is about to sleep, he notes that the river looks like "a silver stream in the moonlight."

How True, Zazu?
While flying over the Pride Lands, Zazu notices the Zuberi River snaking its way across the Pride Lands.
