In the book series, Kopa is featured prominently in '']''. He also had minor roles in other books of the set. According to the illustrations, he looks almost exactly like Simba as a cub, except for a small tuft of brown fur on his head. He is described as loving to hear stories. |

In ''Vulture Shock'', Kopa wanted to find his family tree so he asked Simba to take him to it. Simba was busy and Kopa decided he'd find it by himself. After he found a lizard and chased it he ended up in a dry, barren land. He couldn't find a way back so he curled up and fell asleep. In the morning he was found by two vultures who took him for ransom. They kept him prisoner high up in a tree. He was later found by the Buzzard Boyz, a group of rapping vultures. They befriended Kopa and brought Simba and Nala to him. Kopa was then rescued. |

Although the cub presented at the end of the first Lion King movie is believed to be Kopa, due to his incredible likeness to a young Simba (and in several books the cub is described as Simba's son) he is not featured or mentioned in The Lion King 2. His sister Kiara is the only child of Simbas shown, and is presented in her own ceremony. Many fans of the films believe that Zira (who is loyal to Scar) murdered or organised the murder of Kopa, one of the reasons she and her pride were banished to the outlands. |
