Jungle Book - Wild Black Bees

Logo for Jungle Book - Wild Black Bees

Animated series based on Rudyard Kipling's classic about the adventures of Mowgli, the boy raised by wolves in the Indian jungle. We follow him as he leaves the pack and learns to survive in the dangerous jungle, constantly at risk of becoming a tasty snack for the evil tiger, Shere Khan. Guided by his trusted friends, Baloo the bear and Bagheera the panther, the mancub doesn't always listen to their good advice and ends up in all sorts of risky situations. While playing truant from one of Baloo's lessons, Mowgli and Bagheera find themselves at the foot of some cliffs. In spite of Bagheera's warning, Mowgli can't resist climbing them and discovers that a swarm of black bees is living there. When, later on, Shere Khan attacks Baloo, Mowgli is determined to teach him a lesson and cunningly leads him to the bees, where Shere Khan is badly stung.
