Raja is the main antagonist of Disney's animated short, Tiger Trouble and the secondary antagonist of Goliath II.
Background
Raja is a crafty old tiger who tries to eat Goliath II (wondering what a tiny elephant tastes like) every time he crosses him, but each attempt always ends in consecutive failures. He is eventually swallowed by a crocodile on his last try, but he escapes from the crocodile's stomach and runs away in horror, and was never seen again. It is unknown what happened to him. But, he presumed gave up going after Goliath II and went somewhere else to do instead.
Appearances
Raja first appeared as an unnamed Royal Bengal tiger in the short Tiger Trouble, where he tried to eat the tiger hunter Goofy in the jungles of India.
His most famous appearance was in the 1960 short film Goliath II in which he attempts to eat the small titular elephant many times before he is eventually thrown to the crocodile by Goliath II's mother.
He has also appeared in the TV show TaleSpin in several episodes as an unnamed assistant of Shere Khan, working for Khan Industries. He was voiced by Jim Cummings.
He also made a cameo in two Mickey Mouse TV series. In one opening title for an episode of Mickey Mouse Works, Donald Duck attempts to hijack the show with a magic show. He brings up a disappearing box and closes the curtains, only to discover a tiger resembling Raja inside when the duck reopens the curtains. The tiger grabs Donald and pulls him inside to attack him (with the curtains closed during this scene). In the Mickey Mouse episode "Year of the Dog", Raja appears briefly when Mickey Mouse accidentally splashes him with a torrent of soda from a billboard.
