Monty (Meerkat)

Monty or Monti (voiced by Quinton Flynn) is a meerkat from the Timon &amp; Pumbaa TV series who makes his first and only appearance in the episode "Kenya Be My Friend?".

Timon and Pumbaa
Monti resembles Timon, but he seems to have darker skin and he has yellow hair, just like Timon's old friend Fred.

Mabu's Mischief
Monti is a shade darker than his sister Mishka, and his hair is bright red as well as very spikey, jutting forwards in a Mohawk-like fashion. Monty's eyes are red, eyeshades are brown, and his nose is black.

Timon and Pumbaa
Monti is shown to have an extreme dislike for bugs, and is unwilling to tolerate anyone who has intestinal gas.

Mabu's Mischief
Monti seems to be irritable, though this could just be from Mabu's pranks.

Kenya Be My Friend?
Monti is Timon's polar opposite. However, he never knew who Timon was. His best friend was Baampu, Pumbaa's opposite. According to the story, he never saw Bampuu for years. He dislikes bugs and likes to eat fresh fruits, nuts, and soybean products. He prefers walking instead of riding on other animals and doesn't like telling other people what to do. It is said that he can cook and has cooked several times for his friend Baampu. After he reunited with Baampu, Monti was never seen again.

Mabu's Mischief
There is another Monty the meerkat who appeared only in the Hakuna Matata magazine series Mabu's Mischief. He is Timon's nephew and Mabu's elder brother.

Monty is minding his own business sunning himself, and keeping an eye out for airborne predators, when he is startled by the mischievous Mabu. He expresses his grievances to Mabu, but his brother is not deterred, and warns the colony that The Sky Bandit is approaching just to see them scatter.

When Mabu is snatched by the eagle who actually is there, he doesn't care very much, but is pleased when he returns vowing to never be mischievous again.
