The answers to today's Strands, game #388, are ZEBRA MEERKAT WARTHOG HYENA ELEPHANT HORNBILL SPANGRAM: LION KING My rating: Easy My score: 1 hint

Even though it was pretty obvious that todays Strands was for The LION KING,
I still snagged Lion as a hint word not that any hints were needed in a straightforward word search.

Id wager that ZEBRA was almost everyones first word, not that they feature much in the story, acting as extras and the butt of a couple of jokes.

Although its about the animal kingdom, including a flatulent WARTHOG, this classic tale of sibling rivalry is very Shakespearian. Indeed, screenwriter Irene Mecchi said that the idea for the movie was pitched to her as Bamblet Hamlet set in the jungle with a bit of Bambi thrown in. Well, I suppose it's better than Disney's idea for a love story set in a farmyard Rameo and Eweliet anyone?
