Rescued as a baby from Shere Khan, the tiger with the blazing eyes, Mowgli is brought up by the Law of the Jungle.

But Mowgli is a man, and he knows that one day he must take his place among his own kind. First, he must face his life-long enemy, Shere Khan, in a battle of wits and strength to discover who is the true King of the Jungle.
