Guinea fowl invasion

The guinea fowl invasion was an attack on Pumbaa's former sounder by an army of guinea fowl, who were after the sounder's supply of grubs for the upcoming rainy season. The sounder made a distress call to signal other warthogs about their endangerment. The distress call was answered by Pumbaa, and he and Timon tried many attempts to help get rid of the guinea fowl. For the final attempt, Pumbaa switched the supply of grubs with a supply of firecrackers to fake out the guinea fowl. As a result, the sounder could leave the camp with the real bag of grubs and they made a call signaling the end of the attack.

===Background===
Sharla and her sounder put their food supply of bugs in a bag and tried to leave their hut, as it would flood during the oncoming rainy season. However, they happened upon a flock of guinea fowl, who wanted their food. Knowing that guinea fowl were dangerous to warthogs, the sounder resolved to stay in their hut for the time being.
===The invasion===
With the guinea fowl surrounding the sounder camp, the warthogs made a distress call for help, to which Pumbaa answered to. When Pumbaa reunited with his former sounder, Sharla asked Pumbaa what his plans were to get rid of the guinea fowl, to which he suggested that they have Timon come up with an idea since he's the "brains of the outfit." Timon stated that the only way to get rid of the guinea fowl was to think like one.
When all of Timon's ideas unfortunately ended in failure, Pumbaa came up with a plan of his own. He and Timon returned to their jungle to find the battered jeep from before they heard the sounder's distress call. Pumbaa stated that the jeep was perfect as it was big enough to carry the warthogs' supply of bugs and fast enough to outrun the guinea fowl, but Timon pointed out that it was also broken enough for it to take weeks to be fixed unless one of them were a certified fixer upper, which gave Pumbaa an idea.
After Pumbaa received a certificate for being a fixer upper, Timon and Pumbaa fixed the jeep and successfully got it to run. They returned to the sounder camp, and the warthogs let them in with the jeep while still keeping the guinea fowl from entering.
Later that night, Pumbaa and Sharla were talking under the moonlight. Sharla wanted Pumbaa to become a member of the sounder again, telling him that he belongs with them (especially her), but Pumbaa told her that he prefered to stay with Timon as a wanderer and pointed out that he could not have his sounder permanently cover their snouts with clothespin because of his scent, to which Sharla ultimately agreed.
The next morning, Timon and the male warthogs put the bag of bugs on the jeep. After Pumbaa and Sharla said their final goodbye, with Sharla giving Pumbaa a big kiss on the cheek, Pumbaa and Timon got on the jeep and left the sounder camp with the bag of bugs. The guinea fowl followed the duo as they were after the bag of bugs, while Timon and Pumbaa tried to prevent the guinea fowl from attacking them. 
After Timon and Pumbaa fell off a cliff with the jeep, Timon found out that the bag was filled with firecrackers instead of bugs. When lightning struck and caused the firecrackers to explode and instantly roast the guinea fowl, Pumbaa explained that he used the bag of firecrackers to fool the guinea fowl into thinking that it had bugs in it while Sharla and the other members of the sounder left with the real bag of grubs much to Timon's disappointment. The sounder then made a call as a sign that the problem was resolved.
