Mother and Fatherwolf aren't looking for trouble, but when a small man-child toddles by their cave, they decide they can't leave him alone in the jungle. They take the boy into their pack, name him Mowgli, and raise him as one of their own cubs. Mowgli learns the law of the jungle from the big old brown bear Baloo and Bagheera the black panther, but even they can't keep an eye on him all the time
