Beauty and happiness

of the Jungle has a lesson for life

but you can still s right up to the sky

hold your head up

high keep your courage

[Music]

Stars up

above you will

discover love

[Music]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

so you really think it's funny don't you

[Music]

oh it's my turn to laugh here

[Music]

[Applause]

hooray two birds with one shot

yay so you're still laughing at me huh

I'll show you it wasn't luck

I missed uhoh oh my

head

[Music]

yay

hey

huh I'm sorry blue

yay hey look at this isn't it great I

got two of them in one shot mowgly you

should have come to me for your lesson

before going out

hunting but I got two of them with one

shot but you must learn to listen to The

Sounds in the wind it has many secrets

to tell I didn't mean to hurt

you it's all right never forget when the

sound of leaves being walked on is light

it means it's a rabbit then the sound of

Twigs cracking in the under under brush

means it's a baby deer wait a minute

Belo I don't need any lessons not now

that I have this but it's very important

to recognize your enemies well I'm not

afraid of anything as long as I have

this and not even sheer con would dare

mly that's telling him

mly hey beira take a look at these I got

the two of them in a single shot M

that's very good mowgly beira please

don't interfere I'm trying to teach

mowgly to listen to the sound SS in the

wind okay has he told you always to

approach from downwind that way you can

even fool the oldtimers and who are you

calling an Oldtimer I'm not calling

anyone an Oldtimer it's just that

everyone in the jungle knows that it's

not the sound but always the smell that

comes first what the smell doesn't come

first you have to learn about the

different sounds you teach about smell

cuz when you get older you get hard of

hearing what are you insinuating that

I'm getting hard of hearing Now you

listen bagera I want you to get this

straight once and for all I'm mowgli's

teacher and not you do you hear that all

I'm saying Bel is that your method is

oldfashioned mowgly should be taught

using modern teaching methods you and

your new fangled

[Music]

ideas mother aru

[Music]

sah

sah what's going on there's something

wrong mother what have we done I told

you to leave now go away uhoh mother

no reason at all mother won't you tell

we have no choice

s goodbye ACU goodbye sah mother tell me

what happened why did you chase them

away I chased them away because they're

grown up now so what if they're grown up

why do they have to go we're a family

[Music]

Jungle the law of the

[Music]

her baby the way parents are supposed

to that's the signal to assemble

[Music]

ACU Surah mowgly did mother say anything

after we left she said it was the law

but I don't understand what she means

it's strange that she'd be so angry with

us without explaining Hey sir and I went

hunting today and Arro and I caught our

first deer on our own we ran straight

home to tell her instead of praising us

she told us to leave the lair you caught

your first deer yes that's it mother

knows we're grown up wolves now so she

wasn't angry with us all it means is

that mother knows that it's time for

Surah and me to live on our own well if

you're grown up then I must be too after

all I got two birds with one shot didn't

I so I don't see you

foolish thing ignoring the rules of the

hunt I wanted to show them that I was

grown up too mother you're not my little

manb you're not grown up yet huh you are

different from the rest of them if you

were covered with thick fur like the

others you wouldn't have been injured

like this do you understand

no I don't understand do you mean that

just because I'm not covered in fur and

I don't have any sharp fangs that I'll

never be grown up is that it so I'll

never be allowed to hunt it doesn't

for something specially tasty you're not

a fair Hunter tobaki you're always

sneaking around in hunting anything is

fair that is a law of the

Jungle now I've got you where I want you

[Music]

[Music]

wrong you can't escape you might as well

give

this time now I'm really

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

mad what do I do

[Music]

huh who oh beira what are you doing in

my hunting grounds tobaki I'm sorry I

wasn't trying to hunt in your grounds Mr

PIRA

sir

PIRA I heard what happened at the hunt

today you tried to show off

mly you all right

oh bagira did you hear that mowley had

been hurt or have you been following him

around all day like an old worry wart

huh I am not following him whatever give

you that idea speaking of worry warts

well I'm mowgly isn't fully trained in

the ways of the Jungle so as a

responsibility of the teacher are you

badly hurt

mowgly sorry to say but it was your bad

training that got mowgly into this dread

full mess in the first place how much of

the law of the Jungle have you taught

him how much is there to learn uh I

should have known you haven't taught him

the most important thing now listen

mowgly the first rule in the law of the

Jungle is the survival of the fittest we

must do nothing to endanger the survival

of any species I don't understand what

you mean give up Aira you're talking way

over his head the survival of the

fittest is a simple way of saying that

in the jungle Only the strongest

healthiest smartest members of any

species can survive and Hunters must

take only weak or injured animals strong

animals have strong healthy children and

the species Will Survive but if Hunters

take the strongest buffalos away the

herd will get weaker and weaker

eventually the herd will disappear and

then there'll be nothing left for us to

hunt so we can't take the strong ones

that's it mowgly excellent you've

learned an important lesson today all of

us here in the jungle have to learn to

live in harmony with each other you

don't have to like everybody but you

have to respect them

respect mhm when you respect every other

creature's right to survive you'll be

grown up mowle mowgly where are you

mogly sah arw there you are you're safe

why did you run away we were so worried

we looked everywhere for

you

mowgly oh mother

[Music]

I'll go and tell AAA he's safe and I'll

go and tell the

others doesn't look like we're needed

around here anymore oh but you haven't

been needed since the beginning I got

here in time to save mowgly you old

Slowpoke are you calling me a Slowpoke

gra you Grace you're too old to race

anymore what do you mean I'm too old why

don't you act your age Look Who's

Talking they say you can only catch

small game now what I caught a wild boar

yesterday must one of these days you

will have to leave and go away on your

own but not for a while yet not

yet

no my little

one here's how to catch the smell of the

jungle first you turn your nose upward

and you find the smell in the

[Music]
