Summary. " Mowgli ’s Brothers" One warm evening in the Seeonee jungle hills of India, Father Wolf wakes up and prepares to go hunting. A figure appears – Tabaqui, a jackal – and wishes Father Wolf luck. The jungle is wary of Tabaqui because he is apt to go mad. Father Wolf warily offers him some food and Tabaqui eagerly accepts.
They know Kaa is the only creature the Bandar-log fear. Kaa, who is hungry, goes along with their request. Baloo is slower, so Kaa and Bagheera race ahead, leaving Baloo to go at a bear's pace.
Here, Mother Wolf is fiercely loyal to Mowgli, even though she barely knows him. She has already accepted him as part of her pack and treats him like her child. Meanwhile, Shere Khan treats Mowgli like he does not belong in the jungle and will do anything to ensure he is not part of the ecosystem.
Bagheera and Baloo know Kaa will believe them because the Bandar-log have no respect for the natural hierarchies in the jungle. Kaa is angry because the Bandar-log are lower than him on the jungle hierarchy, but they are acting like they are above him (or at least he thinks they are).
