Mongoose On Loose

Mowgli, Bagheera and Baloo have come to visit Rikki Tikki Tavi’s new den, but find him fighting a large cobra. Rikki Tikki not only hurts his paw but hurts his pride too. He should have been able to see off the cobra! Mowgli takes the mongoose off into the jungle to help him regain his strength, but all the mongoose does is manage to upset other jungle inhabitants with his aggressiveness. Mowgli realises that the reason why Rikki Tikki didn’t win the fight is because there were more than one cobra in the den. The pair return and with the help of Baloo and Bagheera chase off the cobras. Rikki’s pride and courage have returned and he is a happy mongoose.
