Nuka is the oldest son of Zira and was born at some point during Scar’s reign as King of the Pride Lands. Sometime in between the events of The Lion King and The Lion King II: Simba’s Pride, he was banished to the Outlands alongside Zira, his siblings, and the rest of Scar’s followers. Despite being the oldest of Zira’s children, he is neglected by Zira in favor of Kovu, Scar’s chosen heir. It is never explained why Nuka was rejected in favor of Kovu.
