It was then that, for the first time, he revealed to the fawn how the two related, referring to him as, 'my son.' He took Bambi back to his home, but asked his friend, Owl, to find a doe to raise him instead, not wanting parental matters to keep him from his princely duties.Īs the season of spring progressed, he and Bambi began to bond. He did not interact with his son again until after the death of his mate at the hands of Man. When the Great Prince heard Bambi crying for his father, he found the young fawn and led both him and his mother to safety, only to disappear back into the forest shortly afterwards. That very day, Man would visit the forest. The two did not speak at all to each on their first interaction, as the Great Prince quietly observed his offspring. They met as a result of the young deer following a group of stags on their way to meet the Great Prince. He did not actually meet Bambi until the fawn was old enough to walk and talk. Īt some point in his life, he gained the title and position of Great Prince of the Forest, though it is unknown when or how this happened. When he was still young, he met a young doe with whom he eventually mated and conceived a son, Bambi. The Great Prince might have been born on April 29 to an unknown doe. The Great Prince was the biggest stag in the forest, with a large set of antlers. After the two bonded following the death of Bambi's mother, he began to express his emotions more openly and talk about the past more often, something he once would not do as he believed 'the past is in the past'. He sometimes seemed cold and indifferent, particularly towards Bambi. Īs an adult, he was highly dignified and sophisticated. As a fawn, The Great Prince was said to have been much like his son, Bambi, personality-wise.
