Not to be confused with Ka-Zar, a character from Ultimate Spider-Man.

That's twice you've been out of step today, Blag! You klutz! You know we can't ascend to the top of the food chain until we eat a lion!
―Kazar

Kazar is the main antagonist of Disney's 2006 animated film, The Wild.

Personality[]

Kazar is a very cruel, wicked, deceitful, opprobrious, uncompromising, manipulative, and traitorous wildebeest who no longer wants to dwell at the bottom of the food chain. He is somewhat insane and preposterous, as he actually wants to eat meat in order to ascend to the top of the food chain. He is also shown to be extremely abusive towards his herd, especially his second-in-command, Blag.

Role in the film[]

Kazar is a wicked wildebeest who no longer wants to dwell at the bottom of the food chain. He is somewhat insane; he actually wants to eat meat in order to ascend to the top of the food chain, and was successful in convincing other wildebeests. Kazar captures Nigel the koala and reveals to him that a stuffed koala bear fell out of the sky (actually from a plane) and scared the lionesses who cornered him away. Kazar therefore wants prey to become predator and vice versa. He then dubs Nigel as "The Great Him". When he hears from his lead vulture minions that there are lions nearby, he orders his lieutenant Blag to bring them so they can eat them.

Kazar then attempts to eat Samson and Ryan when they enter the volcano. During the battle with Samson, Kazar loses his right horn; thanks to Samson. Soon, Kazar's lieutenant, Blag, and the rest of the wildebeests (who don't really want to turn predators into prey) turn against him and refuse to help him. Enraged, Kazar tries to kill Samson and Ryan himself, but Samson roars a deafening roar, which causes the walls of the volcano to crumble. Kazar is then ditched by his own minions. When everyone escapes the volcano, he calls them cowardly preys and vowing that he will hunt them down before getting his front hooves tangled on the plush koala's pull string. He sees a giant rock about to fall on him and he can only let out a weak "Uh-oh!" before getting crushed by the rock.

Trivia[]

  • Kazar's last words before meeting his demise: "Top of the food chain, Ma! Top of the food chain!" is a reference to James Cagney's character, Arthur "Cody" Jarrett's line from White Heat: "Top of the world, Ma! Top of the world!"
  • Kazar's death is somewhat ironic as the plush toy, which he believed was an omen, saved him from the lionesses, and he dies when his hooves get tangled on the plush toy's pull string, which prevents him from escaping the exploding volcano.
