Chief warthog

The chief warthog is a male warthog. He is the leader of a sounder of warthogs in The Rocks.
A young warthog named Growler lied to the chief warthog and his sounder that Pumbaa wanted to steal their territory. Because of this, the chief warthog nearly attacked and killed Pumbaa. However, Growler's mother intervened and revealed that her son had been lying, after which the sounder celebrated with a meal of grubs.
==Biography==
===Early life===
The chief warthog lived in The Rocks. At some point in his life, he became the leader of his sounder.
===Tricked by Growler===
While traveling with a family of warthogs, Pumbaa stumbled across a warthog sounder. With permission from the chief warthog, the family took up residence with the sounder. While listening to the chief warthog talk to his family, the ill-tempered Growler got an idea to frame Pumbaa for trying to take the sounder's land, which would get him in trouble with the chief warthog.
As Pumbaa continued to spend time with the family, Growler slipped away and spoke with the chief warthog, lying to him that Pumbaa had plans to steal the sounder's land. Enraged, the chief warthog agreed to ambush Pumbaa when Growler led him to The Rocks.
Growler enacted the plan, leading an oblivious Pumbaa to The Rocks, where the chief warthog and his followers surrounded Pumbaa. Pumbaa tried to reason with the angry warthogs but, in his bumbling explanation, only managed to make them all laugh at his silly antics. Just then, Growler's mother arrived and explained her son's trickery to the chief warthog. Relieved that he did not have to hurt Pumbaa, the chief warthog invited Pumbaa and his friends to share one last meal of grubs with them. After the meal, Pumbaa said his goodbyes, and he returned home with his two friends, Simba and Timon.
