Storyline
The story of Mowgli, a young boy abandoned in the wilds of India. Raised by a panther, an elephant and a bear, Mowgli must learn civilization's ways when his long-lost uncle and a circus scout from Barnum and Bailey come looking for him.
India, circa 1880: Young Mowgli's father is devoured by Shere Khan, the tiger, while the youngster takes shelter with a pack of wolves. He grows up in the jungles, and is befriended by Bagheera, a black panther; Baloo, a black bear, as well as his brother Greywolf. At the age of 10, Mowgli ventures out to the human world, and returns home with a trained monkey, the wolves refuse to take him back, and he is treated as an outcast. Alone, without his jungle friends to assist him, he becomes the target of two large apes; a jungle tracker with a huge python; Harrison, who wants to abduct Mowgli, take him to America and make him perform in the P.T. Barnum Circus; Shere Khan, who wants to kill and feast on this man-cub; and his vengeful paternal uncle, Baldev, who wants him dead at any and all costs so that he could keep the inheritance for himself.
