Hunt to satisfy your hunger, but never for fun.
Welcome to the jungle kingdom of Rudyard Kipling, the first Englishman to win the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1907, among other things! You will find yourself in a fascinating world where all the animals have their place and mission in the natural system and order.
The wolves, who take in the lonely human cub Mowgli, respect the laws of nature and the pack. The wolf mother Raksha naturally accepts Mowgli among her wolf cubs, and he soon becomes their brother. But the hateful man-eating tiger Shere Khan seeks to end the boy’s life. Mowgli’s acceptance into the pack will also be significantly influenced by two characters - the bear Balu (teacher of the law of the jungle) and the panther Bagheera. Both become his educators and friends. Mowgli learns the language of animals, accepts as his motto: “You and I are of one blood” and feels part of the wolf pack. But he recognizes that it is not that simple, he also encounters a significant misunderstanding between himself and the animal community, influenced by the vengeful Shere Khan. He gradually learns that he cannot stay in the jungle forever and that he will have to try to live with humans. However, it won’t be easy for him...
