Wild Cats in The Jungle Book
Bagheera and Khan
The black leopard Bagheera is beautiful in this movie adaptation of Rudyard Kipling’s timeless classic. A bengal tiger by the name of Khan also makes an appearance, with an impressive shot of him and Mowgli, played by Jason Scott Lee, facing each other down. Although the panther and tiger play only minor roles, it is great movie for animal and adventure lovers.
