Jungle inspector

The jungle inspector is a male stork.
The jungle inspector arrived at Zazu's tree, where he informed the hornbill that his official count of the Pride Landers had been off by one. Because of the error, he fired Zazu and hired Gopher in his place. However, after Gopher failed to perform and Zazu revised his list, the jungle inspector reinstated Zazu, this time as Gopher's assistant.
==Biography==
===Early life===
The jungle inspector lived in the Pride Lands. At some point in his life, he became a jungle inspector.
===Inspecting Zazu and Gopher===
When Zazu came home, he found it to be completely messy. He called Gopher, who told him that he had been reorganizing and showed him that the jungle inspector was coming soon. Panicked, Zazu and Gopher cleaned up the mess and placed it outside. However, Gopher told Zazu that the inspector was at the same place Zazu had put the mess.
Zazu opened the door, which caused the mess to get back in, and found the inspector in the trash can. The inspector told Zazu that the list of animals was incomplete since he had forgotten to count one animal. After showing Zazu that he was off by one, he fired the hornbill and gave the job to Gopher. When Zazu got kicked out of his tree, he went on a quest to find the one animal he had forgotten to count.
After Rafiki made Zazu realize that the one animal he had forgotten to count was himself, the hornbill flew home and found some animals incorrectly placed. He saw that Gopher was responsible for this. The inspector scolded Gopher for his job, and he replied that being a jungle administrator was a very difficult job for one animal to do. Zazu returned and agreed with what Gopher had said. He stated that Gopher was better off working as a jungle administrator's assistant.
When Zazu showed the inspector the now-complete list of animals, the inspector apologized to the hornbill for firing him and gave him his job back. However, Zazu and Gopher's jobs were switched: Gopher became the jungle administrator, while Zazu became his assistant.
==Physical appearance==
The jungle inspector is a tall, thin stork. He has blue feathers, an orange beak and feet, and gray eyelids. His eyes are black.
==Personality and traits==
No-nonsense and strict, the jungle inspector's duty is to keep things organized. After telling Zazu about his incomplete list of animals, he kicked the hornbill out and gave his job to Gopher. He later found out the hard way that Gopher was not as talented as Zazu. When Zazu showed the inspector the new record of jungle animals (himself included this time), the inspector was impressed and gave the hornbill his job back.
