Wikipedia 
- A scar is the natural result of a healing process in the human body. When the deeper layer (scientists call that "dermis") is hurt by a wound, the wounded tissue will be replaced by scar tissue. Scar tissue is not identical to the tissue it replaces. A scar will look different (and have different characteristics) than the surrounding tissue.

The Lion King
Scar is a fictional character and the main villain in Walt Disney Pictures' popular 1994 animated movie "The Lion King". He was voiced by Jeremy Irons (except at the final of "Be Prepared", where he was voiced by Jim Cummings) and his supervising animator was Andreas Deja. Scar is one of four Disney characters to be nominated for "Best Villain" in the MTV Movie Awards (the other three being the White Witch, Captain Barbossa and Davy Jones), and is also the only Disney animated character to have achieved this. In ', Scar was voiced by Jim Cummings again.
The Lion King.
In the first movie, the animals go and see Simba. In the next scene, Scar is playing with a mouse telling it that "life's not fair, is it?". Mufasa is mad at Scar for not coming to see Simba. Scar tells Simba later on in the movie about the elephant graveyard and says "an elephant graveyard is no place for a young prince. Opps!". This is likely a poke at "Bambi", as in Bambi the main character is "the young prince". Simba takes his best friend Nala with him and have to go with Zazu the hornbill. Zazu talks about Simba and Nala getting "betroved" (meaning they're going to be married). This similar to Bambi as Bambi and Faline were supposed to be married and in Felx Salten's original book, "Bambi, A Life in the Woods", they were cousins. This is another controversy surrounding "The Lion King" as that other than Mufasa and Scar, there are no other grown male lions in the group, making Simba and Nala cousins. Simba
