Sarafina Theory

Well, I'm not sure if you know this, but white lions are inbred. Same as with white tigers.
So my theory is... since many people seem to believe Mheetu os white... perhaps he is inbred?
Because there are only two adult lions, Scar and Mufasa, do you think perhaps one of them could be Sarafina's brother, or related to her in some way?
Unless Mheetu's father is not part of the pride, thats pretty much the only way XD

I know this is pretty out-there, its just something I realized recently :P

I believe that Mheetu wasn't pure white, in my theory he has Nala's colour, but just a little brighter. But still, I believe that his father is a rogue. I don't want any incest stuff on my family tree, no offence. :ehh2:

I believe Mheetu had very light fur, but he wasn't totally white (not either in the conceptual art) and the incest idea.... :disgust:

But is it really true that all white lions are inbred? *laughs at Kimba and his father* :P

Hmm, in my theory, Mheetu's fur is darker than Nala's...
But actually I had an idea once that Sarafina could be Mufasa and Scar's sister. But then I decided her to be their cousin. I don't know... If Mheetu really was white, it would make sense that his dad was Sarafina's brother.

the only reason anyone believes Mheetu is white is cause there's no concept art of him that's really colored. personally I believe that he wasn't white, and that his and Nala's dad was Mega.

I really don't beleive Mheetu is white. I beleive he had a light shade of Ni's fur color. Because I think Mheetu's father is Ni :D

Yeah. I always pictured Mheetu with a bright fur shade similar to Nala's.

Actually, White Tigers are inbred. White Lions have a rare genetic disorder, and were once so rare that they were said to show once every thousand years as gods guardians [It was a Swahili belief or something]

In my opinion, I don't think they finished coloring him, OR
In the orignal slides, Simba was suppost to be white...so maybe. -shrugs-
