The Jungle Book

Mowgli is the infant son of a scientist who embarks upon a research mission in the jungle.

Mowgli has a serious problem: he cannot run as fast as his brother wolves, and has no claws and fangs with which to hunt. Teased continuously by Lala, a young she-wolf in his pack, he challenges her to a test of skill.

Mowgli is desperate because Lala has hidden his new weapon.

Some aspects of the jungle life are incomprehensible to Mowgli.

Life in the jungle is easier for those who have good friends. Encouraged by Baloo and Baghera's lessons, our young hero then makes friends with Kichi, a young panda, after rescuing him from Shere Khan's clutches.

Kichi wants to spend all his time with Mowgli and his friends, but unfortunately, this desire often gets him into trouble. The panda becomes easy prey for the monkeys who use him as a bait to snare Mowgli.

Sometimes Mowgli does not heed Baloo's teachings concerning the law of the jungle. When Mowgli refuses to learn his lesson, the bear loses his patience and slaps the boy with his paw.

Mowgli has been trapped by the iron teeth. While he struggles to free himself, a giant crocodile lumbers out of the river and heads in his direction. Luckily, Baloo shows up in time and engages the fearsome reptile in a fight to the death.

Akru breaks the law of the pack, places Mowgli in great danger, and is then severely injured while trying to save him. Because the young wolf has committed a serious crime, his companions are not allowed to help him, and he is banished from the pack.

Times are hard for our jungle friends; the lack of prey grows greater every day, and the threat of starvation becomes more and more real.
