Bagheera: Many strange legends are told of these jungles of India, but none so strange as the story of a small boy named Mowgli. It all began when the silence of the jungle was broken by an unfamiliar sound.
[Sound of baby crying]
Bagheera: It was a sound like one never heard before in this part of the jungle. It was a man cub! Had I known how deeply I was to be involved, I would've obeyed my first impulse and walked away.

Trivia
In the early 70s, the Disney studio was undergoing a cost-cutting exercise with their film Robin Hood. To help save money, they recycled several elements from The Jungle Book, including using the design of Baloo for Little John and the dance sequence between Baloo and King Louie which was rotoscoped and used again for Little John and Lady Cluck's dance.

Factual errors: Wolf cubs do not wag their tails when they are curious. The tail wag among wolves is largely a sign of submission. See more »Quotes
