<div>'''''The Last Unicorn''''' is an animated movie released in 1982 about a young [[unicorn]] who is searching for more of her kind, but is told by all that she is the last. It is based on a book written by [[Peter S. Beagle]] with the same title. <br />

==Relation to the Furry Fandom==<br />
As with many animated movies aimed towards children, '''The Last Unicorn''' features speaking animals as a major part in the plot. Also, the Unicorn and Amalthea are the same being, one being a unicorn and the other being a human, but they never exist at the same time so cannot exactly be considered [[Anthropomorphic|anthro]].<br />

[[Image:Nuka.JPG|right|thumb|200px|Nuka]]<br />
'''Nuka''' ([[Swahili]] for "smell" or "stink"; also Inuit for "younger brother") is an [[Outlander]] from the 1998 Disney direct-to-video film ''[[Simba's Pride]]'', the sequel to ''[[The Lion King]]''. He is voiced by [[wikipedia:Andy Dick|Andy Dick]]. Nuka is the eldest son of [[Zira]] (and possibly the son of [[Scar]]), and is the brother of [[Kovu]] and [[Vitani]]. His character is based off of [[Wikipedia:Tybalt|Tybalt]] from [[Wikipedia:Romeo and Juliet|Romeo and Juliet]].<br />
<br />
==Biography==<br />
{{spoiler}}<br />
Nuka is very resentful of not being Scar's heir, especially towards Kovu. It is generally accepted that he was rejected because Kovu was healthier and better looking, and an overall better candidate for a king. Another theory was that since Kovu was the youngest (like Scar), Scar made Kovu heir over Nuka out of jealousy of his older brother [[Mufasa]].<br />
<br />
Nuka simultaneously bashes Kovu and tries to please his mother, helping her out in her schemes to kill off [[Simba]]. This leads to his death when he chases Simba up an unstable dam of logs in an attempt to please his mother. Simba kicks off a log in Nuka's general direction, trapping Nuka and crushing him to death.<br />
<br />
His last words to Zira are "I'm sorry, Mother. I tried." In a cut version, he goes on to ask, "Well, I finally got your attention, didn't I...didn't I?" However, in the final film, the second "Didn't I?" can be heard in a gasp before he dies.<br />
