There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.
1. A "lame" tiger would indeed hunt humans as it does not really have any other choice.
2. Animals all have a natural fear of fire.
That's about all I can think of for accuracies.
Inaccuracies
1. Indian wolves aren't as social as Kipling describes them, and they also don't have thick cut like I'm pretty sure he describes them.
2. Bagheera is incorrectly called a panther instead of a leopard, but that wasn't known back then.
3. Tigers most certainly didn't get their stripes by breaking the law. But this is a story after all.
4. Brown bears are not found in jungles.
5. I do personally think it is inaccurate to say hunting humans is against any laws of nature, but that's just me.
6. Dholes most certainly don't and never have gathered in packs numbering over 100, they could never support that many members.
7. Not every animal is scared of Dholes including elephants, adult gaurs, bees, spiders, other insects, cobras, tigers (yes, I said it, deal with it), songbirds, etc.
