Description:

Raised by wolves, mentored by a panther, and hunted by a fierce tiger, one human boy must master the wild to survive. Deep within the lush, perilous heart of the Indian jungle, a remarkable story unfolds. Abandoned as an infant, young Mowgli is adopted by the Seeonee Wolf Pack and taught the uncompromising Law of the Jungle. Guided by the wise brown bear Baloo and the lethal but loyal black panther Bagheera, the 'man-cub' learns to swing through the canopy, speak the languages of the beasts, and respect the delicate balance of the wild. But the jungle holds ancient enmities. The bloodthirsty tiger Shere Khan, nursing a vendetta and an insatiable hunger, vows to end the boy's life. As Mowgli grows, he soon discovers that he is entirely trapped between two worlds—neither fully beast nor truly accepted by mankind. To protect his animal family, he must face Shere Khan in a battle of wits, courage, and the feared power of the Red Flower.
