The opening of "Le livre de la Jungle" introduces us to the serene yet ominous setting of the jungle at night, where Father Wolf awakens in his cave. The scene quickly transitions with the character of Tabaqui, the jackal, who shares news about Shere Khan, the tiger, who poses a threat to the peace of the jungle. This sets up the tension that will characterize Mowgli's story, as his plight begins when he is discovered by the wolves after being separated from humans. The wolves, notably Mother Wolf, decide to adopt him, challenging the status quo of their world. Mowgli’s acceptance into the wolf pack marks the beginning of his journey, teeming with danger, friendship, and the discovery of his own identity amidst the Laws of the Jungle.
