Where did she come from,and how did she become friends with Sarabi??????

i dont know, good question...

Maybe she was born an outcast and didnt know what was out and around the outlands

See, that's why I wish TLK 1 1/2 / 3 was on the pride's background. Where Saraphina comes from. How Sarabi and Mufasa became mates. Why Scar's so mean. I wish I knew.

woa! that's alot to say in such few words!

Maybe Mufasa is the secret father,and perhaps Sarafina wants to keep it extremely secret,even from Nala.

Who knows, but that's a scary thought though

Well disney wanted to keep it as true to life as possible but with huma elements thrown in, in real life the male of the pride sires all cubs until he is over-thrown and to make it realistic they needed other cubs besides Simba living within the pride and most females in a pride are related, eg. mothers and daughters, and did you realise how alike Sarafina and Sarabi looked? animators would have done this to keep the movie true-to-life coz TLK was meant to be an animated film but without humanised characters, eg. no hands and chars don't walk on two legs, but they did'nt go any further into this because it was'nt relative to the story. I also wish TLK 3 or 1, 1/2 had been about this instead of Timon 'n' pumbaa's background, the movie are called the LION king not the meerkat and warthog king, absolute stupidity on disney's part.

i believe that sarafina grew up with scar/taka and musfasa and sarabi...i also think somewhere..this is a hunch...that sarabi and sarafina are sisters...noone knows...i dont know..hunch...but i dont think that she was from another pride or anything lik that...id ont know why anyone would think that...other than the fact that noone knows who nalas(sarafinas daughter) father is.....interesting..::ponders::

I had a book about Mufasa and Serabi growing up and it was about how Zazu became Mufasa's little right hand bird.
From what I can remember, Mufasa and Serabi were already mates and he saved her from a ditch that was in the stampeede gorge in the movie. I think Zazu told Mufasa about it.

It was so long ago and I wish I could find it.
As for the Sarafina thing...no clue. In the scen where Simba goes to wake up his dad to see the lands, you can see (who I hope) is Sarafina in with the lionesses and a cub (possibly Nala) sleeping in her arms.

thats true..i dont know..but i i seriously doubt still that sarafina was from another pride...and you know what i wondered....if sarafina was in the second movie...when kiaira goes out for her first hunt...the lioness that says "my how youve grown...was that her...if not they could have at least put her in there somwhere...i mean she is nalas mom

I agree.
In almost to all movies, mothers are not reconized. They are killed (Bambi, Nemo) or just are not there (Chicken Little, The Wild)

i would have to...i think its stupid tha they didnt even mention thei names..but all the characters had different voice actors...
