Quiz: How much do you know about lions?

Mufasa: The Lion King will be released in cinemas on Friday.

NEXT WEEK, CINEMAGOERS will be treated to Mufasa: The Lion King.

It’s both a prequel and a sequel to 2019’s The Lion King and will tell the origin story of Mufasa and Scar.

Beyoncé and her daughter Blue Ivy Carter will also lend their voice acting skills to the cast.

With another film in The Lion King series coming next week, we want to test your knowledge of real life lions.

    It’s great news at last, it’s the small businesses that suffer the most and it’s about time the small companies get the help they need, it’s they afterall that form the communities and hold together society, not some multinational that will bugger off when it suits them or when the “deal” is up.

    Not a fan of jobsbridge but at least there should be a chance of a business for them to go to, which I’m sure in anyones eyes is a good thing.

    I’d rather sh_te in my hands and clap for eight hours than be a slave for a profitable company big or small.

    Ned Gash is junketing off to Sweden for St Patrick’s Day.
    I sincerely hope that there are some good and caring Irish people in America, Canada, New Zealand, Australia etc. who are well aware of what’s going on at home and will come out and demonstrate wherever these wasters show up! Tell your family members and friends abroad, who have been forced to  emigrate by the actions of this so called government, to let these miserable ministers  know how they feel at the St Patrick’s Day parades around the world.

    I wish you would shit in your hands. I’ve had two jobsbridge candidates who are still employed. Attitudes like your are the reason hard working folk resent social welfare.
