Description:

The series tell stories of the man-cub 'Mowgli' raised in the
Indian jungles by a pack of wolves. Drama, excitement and adventure mixed
with a high element of comedy tell tales of how Mowgli lives and survives in
the jungle, where his only companions are animals. His adventures reflect his
daredevil, fearless, high-spirited and fun-loving escapades. He is helped by
Baloo the wise bear, his best friend Bagheera the black panther and
(sometimes!) mighty Kaa, the rock python. Mowgli learns to overcome adversity
and make progress in his life by using his quick wit and natural curiosity,
with his constantly optimistic outlook on life. This is very challenging for
the little man-cub with a evil enemy like Shere Khan, the royal Bengal tiger.

Mowgli's adventures open out in the lush tropical forest of
Seeonee amidst splendid Indian royal forts, temples, waterfalls and the
Waingunga river. Throughout the series other characters from the Kipling
stories add flavor to the drama, comedy and action, bringing out excellent
animation and quality storytelling.
