Jivu is the second born of Kiara and Kovu, and the brother of Leah and Mosi. Jivu is always on the prowl for adventure, and often gets himself in danger. He is very childish. He deeply wishes to be a king like his brother, Mosi, but he does not fall in the footsteps of his great uncle, but rather looks on to him as a role model. He falls in love with a lioness named Pende.
