In Disney’s “The Lion King”, what do Timon and Pumbaa love to eat?

Grubs in “The Lion King” franchise consist of many types of invertebrates in both adult and larval form - specifically arthropods, gastropods, and annelids. Several invertebrates referred to as "grubs" may contain hard shells, wings, or pincers. Most grubs are found in dark spaces, such as insides of logs or termite mounds depending on the area where they appear. In addition to the locations they are found within, they can be distinguished by spots, stripes, or even color. Unlike most animals in “The Lion King “franchise that show sentience, most grubs do not appear to be sentient and are often used as a source of food for other animals that eat grubs, such as meerkats or warthogs.

The term "grub" originates from the term used for insect larvae, which is the second part of the life cycle of typical beetles prior to the pupa form. However, in “The Lion King” franchise, the term "grub" is used to refer to not just larvae but also various types of adult terrestrial invertebrates encountered throughout the franchise such as arthropods (insects, arachnids, or myriapods), annelids, and gastropods (such as snails)
