Bunga (Sapphirejas’s Semi Canon)

Bunga is a male honey badger who resides at the Tree of Life. He is formerly of the Pridelands. He is the bravest member of the Night Pride. He is formerly of the Lion Guard. He is the adopted son of Timon and Pumbaa, the adopted brother of Simba, the mate of Binga, and the father of Saka. 
== Description ==
Bunga has grey fur, black eyes and dark red nose. His underbelly is darker in colour. He has white hair running across his head, back, tail and underarms. He has black claws on his hands and feet, and he has darker flecks on his cheeks. His Night Pride mark is lighter grey in colour.
== Personality ==
Unlike his rule-following best friend Kion, Bunga is a free spirit with an adventurous streak and an affinity for games. Very rarely does Bunga act serious or even sit still, for he is always on the move, working off boundless energy and enthusiasm, and makes even the most dire of situations into a fantastic time. Though this makes him a great friend and playmate, it lands him into trouble more often than not.
With so much endless zest, Bunga is a magnet for trouble and is known to be deliberately disobedient, as seen when he strays into the Outlands to fetch his misplaced baobab ball. Though he is often warned by Kion, Bunga rushes straight into situations, often inflaming them and requiring his friends to come to his rescue. In addition, he is known to be disrespectful of authority, most notably when he calls Simba "a big, old scaredy cat" for placing rules of safety around Kion.
This sort of attitude is only intensified by Bunga's impetuous nature. Thinking himself to know the best, he often ignores the advice of his friends and gives in to his more impulsive instincts. He is very immature. His impatience and hot-headed demeanor only create more chaos, for Bunga is easily spun into a fury and is repeatedly too stubborn to back out of a perilous situation.
Despite these more negative quirks, Bunga is valued for his bravery, a trait he has in plenty. Not only is he willing to put himself in bodily harm, such as his stunt in leaping off Pride Rock, but he will face down predators such as the hyenas in order to save his friends. As Kiara puts it, he is "brave, bordering on stupid," but a valued member of the Lion Guard nonetheless. He is also very friendly and kind.
