Baby Earl

Baby Earl is a male eagle.
When Timon and Pumbaa ate Baby Earl's meal of bugs, they incited his mother's wrath. To placate her, the two agreed to babysit Baby Earl. However, the task proved to be exceptionally difficult, as he repeatedly escaped their clutches by jumping from his nest. Eventually, he managed to fly using safety pins from his diaper, much to his mother's delight.
==Biography==
===Early life===
Baby Earl was born to Mother Eagle. He lived with his mother in a nest on Mount Kilimanjaro. One day, his mother gave him a flying lesson away from the nest.
===Babysat by Timon and Pumbaa===
While visiting the mountains, Timon and Pumbaa stumbled upon Baby Earl's feeding dish. Tempted by the tasty bugs in his dish, the two gobbled up the remains of the food, leaving Mother Eagle in a fury. In order to keep her from turning them in to the authorities, Timon and Pumbaa volunteered to be Baby Earl's babysitters.
At first, Timon attempted a rushed treatment of Baby Earl, but Pumbaa insisted that they stay in order to keep the eaglet safe. No sooner had he said this when Baby Earl jumped out of his nest and nearly died before being saved by a panicked Timon. Convinced that he had to stay with Baby Earl, Timon took on the burden of babysitting. He attempted to use reverse psychology to get Baby Earl to stay in his nest, but the plan failed, and Baby Earl fell down the side of the mountain.
With free roam of the mountain, Baby Earl hopped from cliff to cliff, with Timon and Pumbaa scrambling to keep him safe. When he finally reached his nest, he hopped out, and Timon and Pumbaa were left to watch him fall. Unlike the other plunges, however, this one ended with Baby Earl using safety pins from his diaper to fly back up the cliff and into his mother's waiting arms.
==Physical appearance==
Baby Earl is a small eaglet, with a large head and skinny body. He has a brown torso, a pale gray head and neck, orange talons, and large blue eyes. He wears a white diaper.
==Personality and traits==
Baby Earl is ambitious and mischievous. Desperate to learn, he is naïvely brave, as he was willing to jump off a cliff in order to learn how to fly. He gave his babysitters a lot of trouble and chafed at any orders they gave him. He is very attached to his mother, acting especially innocent and sweet in her presence. However, his learning seems to come of his own accord, as he took more initiative when left to his own independence. He can be very impulsive, to the point of stupidity.
