SYNOPSIS

Little Mowgli, a boy raised by wolves in the Indian jungle, is happy just enjoying the "Bare Necessities" with his buddies, especially happy-go-lucky bear Baloo. However, the vicious tiger, Shere Khan decides the man-cub must be eliminated because of the threat he will pose to tigers once he grows into a man. So panther Bagheera sets out to return him to the "man village," where he will be safe. Along the way to rejoining the human world, Mowgli has to face many challenges, such as a rascally monkey King Louie and a final confrontation with the dreaded Shere Khan himself.
