“Well, look to it then that thou dost not kill the man-cub. He can now claim protection, if he will only remember the words, from all in the jungle. “I am now teaching him the Master Words of the Jungle that shall protect him with the birds and the Snake People, and all that hunt on four feet, except his own pack. “Better he should be bruised from head to foot by me who love him than that he should come to harm through ignorance,” Baloo answered very earnestly. “His face is all bruised today by thy-softness.
“Softly! What dost thou know of softness, old Iron-feet?” Bagheera grunted. That is why I teach him these things, and that is why I hit him, very softly, when he forgets.” “Is there anything in the jungle too little to be killed? No. “How can his little head carry all thy long talk?” “But think how small he is,” said the Black Panther, who would have spoiled Mowgli if he had had his own way. But, as Baloo said to Bagheera, one day when Mowgli had been cuffed and run off in a temper, “A man’s cub is a man’s cub, and he must learn all the Law of the Jungle.” It means, translated, “Give me leave to hunt here because I am hungry.” And the answer is, “Hunt then for food, but not for pleasure.”Īll this will show you how much Mowgli had to learn by heart, and he grew very tired of saying the same thing over a hundred times. Then, too, Mowgli was taught the Strangers’ Hunting Call, which must be repeated aloud till it is answered, whenever one of the Jungle-People hunts outside his own grounds.
None of the Jungle People like being disturbed, and all are very ready to fly at an intruder.

So Baloo, the Teacher of the Law, taught him the Wood and Water Laws: how to tell a rotten branch from a sound one how to speak politely to the wild bees when he came upon a hive of them fifty feet above ground what to say to Mang the Bat when he disturbed him in the branches at midday and how to warn the water-snakes in the pools before he splashed down among them. The boy could climb almost as well as he could swim, and swim almost as well as he could run. Sometimes Bagheera the Black Panther would come lounging through the jungle to see how his pet was getting on, and would purr with his head against a tree while Mowgli recited the day’s lesson to Baloo. The big, serious, old brown bear was delighted to have so quick a pupil, for the young wolves will only learn as much of the Law of the Jungle as applies to their own pack and tribe, and run away as soon as they can repeat the Hunting Verse-“Feet that make no noise eyes that can see in the dark ears that can hear the winds in their lairs, and sharp white teeth, all these things are the marks of our brothers except Tabaqui the Jackal and the Hyaena whom we hate.” But Mowgli, as a man-cub, had to learn a great deal more than this. It was in the days when Baloo was teaching him the Law of the Jungle. He is a python.Īnyway, I’ll explain a few more names as we go along, But now, let’s get on with the story.Īll that is told here happened some time before Mowgli was turned out of the Seeonee Wolf Pack, or revenged himself on Shere Khan the tiger. KAA, who this chapter is named after, is made-up name, from the queer open-mouthed hiss of a big snake. So that is why we are pronouncing his name “Mowgli” just as Kipling instructed.Īnd Kipling tells us that BALOO is Hindi for `Bear'.Īnd BAGH is Hindi for `Tiger' so BAGHEERA the black pantha sort of means a little tiger. It is pronounced Mowglee (accent on the Mow, which rhymes with 'cow').” It does not mean `frog' in any language that I know of. In the Disney film his name is pronounced Mo-glie as in the name Mo.
