what kind of animal does princess jasmine have in aladdin and what is his name
List of Disney's Aladdin characters Rajah is Princess Jasmine's pet tiger which displays dog and cat-like behavior. He is also voiced by Frank Welker. Unlike Abu, he is not anthropomorphized, but is still able to understand human language and emotions, as seen when he is surprised by the revelation of Princess Jasmine that she has never had a true friend (except for Rajah himself), or when he assists her in her escape from the palace. In the first film, Rajah is distrustful towards Aladdin at first, but later warms up to him. He also takes part in the battle against Jafar, but is turned into a cub and imprisoned in a bird cage. He is returned to his original form at the end of the film after Aladdin finally defeats Jafar.
Aladdin No Arabic written source has been traced for the tale, which was incorporated into the book Les Mille et Une Nuits by its French translator, Antoine Galland, who heard it from a Syrian storyteller from Aleppo, Youhenna Diab.[3] Galland's diary (March 25, 1709) records that he met the Maronite scholar, by name Youhenna Diab ("Hanna"), who had been brought from Aleppo to Paris by Paul Lucas, a celebrated French traveller.[3] Galland's diary also tells that his translation of "Aladdin" was made in the winter of 1709â€“10. It was included in his volumes ix and x of the Nights, published in 1710.
