Nala at different stages in her life

BABY Baby Nala isn't mentioned or pictured in the movie, but this pic kind of reminded me of a cute, sweet, innocent cub!!!!

CUB Simba's playmate, Nala is a little more dependent on her mother than Simba, but she is stronger and more sensible ('We could get in big trouble'). But, Nala is as adventurous as Simba, even though the hyenas spooked her a little.

YOUNG ADULT Nala leaves the hyena infested Pride Lands to get help, and she finds Simba! Though she is happy, Nala knows that he must go back and drive Scar and the hyenas out, and then take his plce as te rightful king.   Even as a young adult, Nala is wise and adviseful, bu she still knows how to have fun.

ADULT   As Simba's mate and Queen of the Pride Lands, adult Nala has tons of responsibilities.   But, even though Simba is always conerned about their daughter, Kiara hanging around with Kovu, Nala makes him feel better by telling him this:   "oh, my Simba, you want so much to walk the path expected of you, perhaps Kovu does not." Simba:  What! How do you know him? Nala   "I can see them down there just as easily as you can. Get to know him and see."
