Ronno

Ronno is a male deer who appears in Disney's movie Bambi as Bambi's rival. He was only in one scene in the original movie as the nameless buck who fought with Bambi over Faline. However he was named in realated literature and in the midquel, Bambi 2, which greatly expanded on his personality.

Personality

In Bambi, Ronno was a nameless character, essentially a cypher. He was evidently older and stroonger than Bambi as evidenced by his darker appearance, slightly larger build and the greater number of points on his antlers. He challenged and fought Bambi for Faline's "hand in marriage, but after initial dominance in the fight he was defeated.

In Bambi II, Ronno was a much more extensive and (to the misfortune of everyone else in the forest) much more frequently seen personality. He was in essence the forest bully, frequently picking on Bambi and never hesitating to torment the young prince over his mother's death and shaky relationship with his father. It seems likely that this was motivated by jealousy, as evidenced by the fact that, as in the first movie, he attempted with no sucess to win Faline's attention and affection by means of brute force.
