Skinks

Skinks are a species of animal native to the Outlands. They allied with the resurrected spirit of Scar in order to overthrow Simba, the king of the Pride Lands.
==Physical characteristics==
Skinks are medium-sized lizards with oval-shaped heads, slender bodies, and long tails. Their scales can be a variety of colors, including black, blue, green, purple, red, and yellow. Sometimes, their scales are bi-colored, with their legs being a lighter or darker shade than their main body. Most skinks have distinctive markings, such as spots or stripes.
==Sociocultural characteristics==
Due to their size, skinks are stealthy creatures and often serve as spies, most notably for Scar. They are often deceptive and sly, and will trick other animals for their own gain. They rally together in groups; the most prominent group of skinks serves Shupavu in the Outlands.
