I don't think it's nice to treat ants like that! Son, you must have respect for all animals, no matter how small they are!
Mufasa to Simba[src]

Small Giants is a Brazilian comic inspired by The Lion King. It was published by Abril in March 1998.

Synopsis[]

Simba and Nala are relaxing. Simba tells Nala to watch the ants, who walk to and from all day long. For his own amusement, Simba tries to get Nala to play a game with a twig to poke at the ants, but Nala refuses because of the severe heat. Simba proceeds to poke at the ant hill with a twig and sucks water in his mouth to splash the ants.

When Mufasa takes notice of his son, he asks him what he is doing, and Simba replies he is just having fun. Mufasa tells Simba that he must have respect for all animals, no matter how small they are, and points out that if the ants were ten times his size, he would not stand a chance against them. Therefore, the ants would dominate the Pride Lands over the lions. Simba dismisses this.

Later, Simba wonders where Nala is and finds himself in a canyon. Simba runs around, wondering where he is, and suddenly hears a nearby rumbling sound. It is revealed to be a trio of gigantic ants. One of them crushes a giant rock. Simba runs in horror and tells Mufasa (who is with Rafiki) that there are giant ants coming toward them. When the ants arrive, the animals in the Pride Lands flee. While fleeing with the others, Simba stumps his front paw over a rock, and one of the giant ants corners him, causing the young cub to plead for mercy, stating he would never bother ants again.

Finally, Nala attempts to wake Simba, who is having a nightmare. Simba quickly arises from his nightmare and runs to apologize to the ants at their ant hill for teasing them. He then promises that he'll never do it again.
