"Viidakkopoika" by Rudyard Kipling is a fictional work written in the late 19th century. The story follows Mowgli, a young boy raised by wolves in the Indian jungle, as he navigates the challenges of living amidst wild animals and their unique social order. Central themes include the contrast between civilization and the natural world, as well as the struggle for identity. The opening portion introduces Mowgli's origins and his initial interactions with the Seeonee wolf pack. It begins with the sound of a hunting song as Father Wolf wakes in his cave, preparing for a hunt. The arrival of Tabaqui, the jackal, foreshadows tension with Shere Khan, a fearsome tiger, who poses a threat to Mowgli and the wolf pack. When a human child is discovered, the wolves must decide whether to accept him into their pack, setting the stage for Mowgli's unique position between two worlds. The intricate dynamics of the jungle's laws and the relationships among various characters are established, painting a vivid picture of life in the wild and hinting at the challenges that will unfold as Mowgli grows.
