Cisco Pig's gang is a group of bandits led by Cisco Pig. They reside in Gulch Gulch.

When Cisco Pig seemingly perished in a train accident, his gang mistook Pumbaa for him. Though Pumbaa pretended to be Cisco Pig for a time, he slipped up when he refused to rob a train, which made the gang immediately suspicious of him. Before long, they determined that he was an imposter and attempted to kill him and his friend, Timon. Just in time, the real Cisco Pig showed up and drove the gang away.

History[]

Cisco Pig's presumed death[]

One day, Cisco Pig and his gang resolved to rob a train, but their first two attempts failed. Finally, Cisco Pig tied himself to a brick wall, but the train ran into him, and his gang presumed that he was dead.

Meanwhile, Timon and Pumbaa entered Gulch Gulch, only for the locals to mistake Pumbaa for Cisco Pig. Timon and Pumbaa sensed that there was something scary going on and decided to hide in a bank. While they were there, Cisco Pig's gang entered, intent on robbing the bank, but the cashier told them that he had already given all their money to Timon and Pumbaa. Enraged, the outlaws chased Timon and Pumbaa until they mistook Pumbaa for Cisco Pig. Delighted that their leader had seemingly survived the train accident, they danced with joy. Seeing this, Timon decided to capitalize on the gang's mistake.

For a time, Cisco Pig's gang pampered Timon and Pumbaa, and participated in various activities with them. Eventually, they suggested that they continue trying to rob the train. Misunderstanding, Timon and Pumbaa used a large rock to knock the train over, and the outlaws scolded them for not robbing it. Pumbaa declared that stealing from the train was illegal and refused to do it, which made the gang suspicious.

The outlaws asked Pumbaa what Cisco Pig's favorite color was, and he correctly answered that it was blue. Despite this, the bandits remained suspicious and asked him more questions about Cisco Pig. Pumbaa got all of the answers correct until the gang asked whether Cisco Pig liked Timon or Pumbaa, to which Pumbaa incorrectly replied that he preferred Pumbaa. This made the gang realize that Pumbaa was an imposter.

Timon and Pumbaa managed to escape the bandits by going fishing. However, they got caught again and fled, with the outlaws giving chase. Eventually, the outlaws surrounded them, intent on killing them, until Cisco Pig intervened and stopped them. After the outlaws had fled, Timon and Pumbaa praised Cisco Pig for having saved their lives and danced before him happily.[1]
