again that flashback was set a long long time ago. the lion with mumm-ra is most likely an ancestor of claudus. and that tiger might be an ancestor of
tygra...maybe. also claudus never ran up against mumm-ra before, infact mumm-ra was thought to be just a myth.
it seems to me that "the pride" is usually led by a lion, which panthro kinda confirmed in "Old Friends". so if the pride is traditionally led by a lion then it might also be tradition to have a tiger be second in command.
if that's the case then maybe tygra's father died in battle and and claudus raised tygra as his own for his friend. but that would have happened in the past 15 or so years and not thousands of years ago when the flashback was set.
