I first saw the lion king at a drive in theatre as a kid, it became my favorite movie for a very long time. Lion king 2 is well worth watching, there are songs in the second one that are better even than the first, and the music in the first was amazing. The story isn't as good, in my opinion, but still worthwhile. My thoughts on the organizational structure of the kingdom is that the lions protect the pridelands and keep any and all other predators out, whereas if they go somewhere else they're more likely to get killed by those other predators. The lions do eat them, but they have a limited population and protect a wide area, and treat the entire ecosystem with respect for long term prosperity, so the herbivores are technically much safer in the pridelands than they would be elsewhere despite some of them being eaten occasionally.

In the specials I've seen about animal kingdoms in places like Africa, grazing animals like they were talking about here, will move on to better areas when their grazing resources are depleted. Many animals have annual migrations to other areas for better grazing, but then come back to have their babies and mate in their original home. So to me, the animals returning once the area was lush again and the hyena threat was gone made sense, because it played off of real animal responses. Also, with this type of movie, where the characters are animals, they have to be made more relatable, so they humanize them, mixing in reactions and worldbuilding aspects that work in human society, but not necessarily in animal ones. To me, the mix of human reactions and authentic zoology was very well mixed, with enough animalisms for kids to "get it", and enough humanisms for them to feel like "us." About5 the rain coming and then everything suddenly being green again after the fire. Yes, that is a thing. Again, back to specials I've seen on this. I've seen many times how over the grazing season in Africa the heat and the use of resources deplete the land so that herds have to move on each year. In some specials, I've seen how the heat and lightening from storms cause brush fires that wipe away the old lands, and then the rains come and restore the green lands to their original lush state. The animals are hard-wired to return at the right time, when the land has been brought back to its green state by the rains. Again, its the way the land works in real life, but in this case, we likely can read it as having a humanlike response added in, with someone from Pride Rock going to the herds who have moved on and saying, "News from your new king! Rejoice, the land is green again, and the hyena hoards are driven out/dead/back under his control. Return and join us!" I am not an animal expert, and what I know of the Savanna is only what I've seen on specials that probably doctored how real life works for dramatic effect, but it is a kid's movie, and for kid's movie, I think they depicted the world of the lions well enough to work. Great reaction, guys.

I saw this in the theatre when I was 5. I used to watch it all the time on VHS (only as a kid, obviously; these days I watch it on my laptop). Watching it again today, I'm struck by how scary it should have been to me as a child. But it wasn't! I was scared of everything else: the Abominable Snowmonster in Rudolph, the whale in Pinocchio, World 8 in the original Mario Bros (randomly). But for some reason, lions murdering each other was not scary at all. I was a weird kid.
