Jelani's troop

Jelani's troop is a group of mandrills. They are led by Jelani.
==History==
===The Lion King: Six New Adventures===
====Follow the Leader====
Khalfani ruled the troop until his death, after which Jelani becomes the new leader. Under his poor leadership, the troop suffers, with their homeland of Grass Walls falling into disrepair.
In the Pride Lands, Haraka the ostrich approaches Rafiki with urgent news. He informs Rafiki that the baboons in Grass Walls are in great trouble, then speeds off. Rafiki immediately sets off to help, while Zazu flies off to tell Simba the news. Along the way, he encounters Nala and warns her of Rafiki's rescue mission. She agrees to bring the message to Simba herself. When she tells Simba of Rafiki's departure and questions whether he should follow after him for help, Simba insists that he needs a break from his duties. Nala argues that Grass Walls is quite far from the Pride Lands and that Rafiki may run into trouble, which wins Simba over.
Together, Simba and Rafiki travel to Grass Walls, only to find that it has deteriorated into a wasteland. As Rafiki makes his way through the kingdom with Simba, he is greeted by old friends. They direct him to their leader, Jelani, who is sitting lazily beneath a dead tree. Rafiki confronts Jelani and demands that he take care of his subjects. When Jelani continually refuses, Rafiki takes charge of the troop, using Simba as his brute force, and announces that they will be leaving Grass Walls in search of better territory.
The next morning, Rafiki leads his troop away from Grass Walls. In the middle of the journey, a leopard attacks the baboon Dalila and steals her son, Mosi. Simba, thinking of his own son, chases the leopard down and saves Mosi. Though the baboons are delighted by Mosi's rescue, they complain of hunger and thirst, and Simba worries that they will not be able to continue for much longer.
Not long after this, Rafiki's cousin Karibu collapses from exhaustion and insists that the troop must go on without her. To the troop's surprise, Jelani pushes forward and lifts Karibu onto his back. The troop carries on until they reach a lush jungle, where they can at last drink and rest.
The next morning, Jelani announces to Rafiki that he has found a clearing where the troop can settle down. Rafiki comments that Jelani has changed, and Jelani explains that he had realized how dangerous his selfish leadership had been. With the troop in safe hands, Rafiki and Simba depart.
