The Real Jungle Book

The Real Jungle Book

Filmed entirely on location in India, this documentary follows the struggles of the living characters that author Rudyard Kipling described in his 1894 collection of short stories, “The Jungle Book." Similar to the tales in Kipling’s work, present-day India is still home to wolves hunting in the arid flatlands, tigers prowling the diminishing forests, and elephants treading hereditary trails.

The Real Jungle Book is presented by your local public television station.
