Mowgli has been living in the village among the humans, including his little stepbrother, Ranjan, and his best friend, Shanti.

When Mowgli wanders back into the wild for some swingin' fun, he soon finds Baloo isn't the only one waiting for him—the man-eating tiger Shere Khan is lurking in the shadows and planning his revenge. If he is to defeat his nemesis, Mowgli will need the help of both his old friends and his new family.
In 1890 India, Mowgli is a "man cub" raised by the wolf Raksha (The Jungle Book) and her pack, led by Akela (The Jungle Book), in an Indian jungle ever since he was brought to them as a infant by the black panther Bagheera. Bagheera trains Mowgli to learn the ways of the wolves, but the boy faces certain challenges and falls behind his wolf siblings, while Akela disapproves of him using human "tricks", like building tools, instead of learning the ways of the pack.
