Kazar

“	No longer will we dwell at the bottom of the food chain!	„
	~ Kazar planning to become predator.

“	Top of The Food Chain, Ma! TOP OF THE FOOD CHAAAAAAAAAAAOOW… OW! Uh-Oh.	„
	~ Kazar's last words.

Kazar is the main antagonist of Disney's 2006 film The Wild. He is an argumentative and merciless wildebeest who tries to ascend to the top of the food chain. He is also the former leader of Blag and the other wildebeests as well as the arch-nemesis of Samson.

He was voiced by William Shatner, who also played Mayor Phlegmming in Osmosis Jones, and General Shanker in Escape From Planet Earth.

Personality

Kazar is a very cruel, wicked, deceitful, opprobrious, uncompromising, manipulative and traitorous wildebeest who no longer wants to dwell at the bottom of the food chain. He is somewhat insane and preposterous, so he actually wants to eat meat in order to ascend to the top of the food chain. One of his most diabolical and contemptuous plans is when he supposedly attempts to kill Samson and Ryan when they enter the volcano.

Biography

Kazar captures Nigel the Koala and reveals to him that a stuffed koala bear came out of the sky (actually from a plane) and scared away a pack of lionesses who cornered him. Kazar therefore wants prey to become predators and vice versa before dubs Nigel as "The Great Him". When he hears that there are two lions nearby, he orders his lieutenant Blag to bring them, so they can eat them.

Kazar attempts to kill Samson and Ryan when they enter the volcano. However, Blag and the rest of the wildebeests (who do not really want to turn predators into prey) betray Kazar and turn against him after they refuse to help him. Enraged, Kazar tries to kill Samson and Ryan himself, but Samson unleashes a powerful roar, which causes the walls of the volcano to crumble. Kazar is then ditched by his own minions and left to die in the volcano before he is crushed by a falling boulder after catching his front hooves on the plush koala's pull string, while the rest of the animals escape to safety before the destructive volcano explodes.
