 Fictionwise eBooks: The Second Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling
The birds and the monkey-people went north early in the year, for they knew what was coming; and the deer and the wild pig broke far away to the perished fields of the villages, dying sometimes before the eyes of men too weak to kill them.
Every one in the Jungle can scramble along somehow when only game is scarce; but water is water, and when there is but one source of supply, all hunting stops while the Jungle People go there for their needs.
In good seasons, when water was plentiful, those who came down to drink at the Waingunga--or anywhere else, for that matter--did so at the risk of their lives, and that risk made no small part of the fascination of the night's doings.

 Rudyard Kipling's 'the Second Jungle Book, Mowgli and Baloo
The picturesque jungle that Mowgli inhabits is shared with hungry tigers, predatory monkeys, killer snakes and eventually by a bunch of humans with equally greedy and deadly motives.
But one of the problems of "The Second Jungle Book" is that its animals and humans rarely seem to inhabit the same frame, diffusing its potential for excitement and giving the film a choppy look.
Joining their trek into the jungle are Buldeo's henchman, Karait (Dyrk Ashton), a tracker who employs a keen-nosed hit python, and the gibbering, prat-falling comic relief, Chuchundra (David Paul Francis), whose pickpocket monkey has run off with Mowgli.

 The Second Jungle Book: Mowgli & Balaoo (1997)
Mowgli, a boy who has been raised in the jungle by the wolves, strays onto a train track, causing an oncoming train to halt.
As before the animals don’t talk, although this time we are told what they are saying via narration, which is something that takes this version closer in spirit to the earlier Alexander Korda Jungle Book (1942).
The downside of the film is that while it conducts a passable jungle adventure, it leavens this with a heavy dose of slapstick — buffoonish natives and monkeys, food fights with fruit (which come accompanied by carnival music), while at the end the villain gets fired out of a cannon.

Kipling was a storyteller of the highest order, but although The Second Jungle Book: Mowgli & Baloo uses the names of Kipling's characters, it shows no trace of Kipling's sense of adventure and excitement.
Mowgli lives a hand-to-mouth life in the jungle — sleeping in a wolf cave, eating beetles, and hanging out with his friends, Baloo the bear and Baghera the panther.

He drew the Jungle out of deep waters with his trunk; and where he made furrows in the ground with his tusks, there the rivers ran; and where he struck with his foot, there rose ponds of good water; and when he blew through his trunk,--thus,--the trees fell.
Then we of the Jungle followed the herd till we came to that cave, and Fear stood at the mouth of it, and he was, as the buffaloes had said, hairless, and he walked upon his hinder legs.
That night, so it was told to me, we of the Jungle did not lie down together as used to be our custom, but each tribe drew off by itself--the pig with the pig, the deer with the deer; horn to horn, hoof to hoof,--like keeping to like, and so lay shaking in the Jungle.

 USCCB Reviews - The Second Jungle Book: Mowgli and Baloo   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
The Second Jungle Book: Mowgli and Baloo -- Because of menacing scenes, some quite frightening, and occasional slapstick violence, (A-II) -- adults and adolescents.
The Second Jungle Book: Mowgli and Baloo presents the live-action adventures of Rudyard Kipling's wild jungle boy of 1890's India as he tries to escape an American who wants to put him in a circus and his evil uncle who wants to kill him.
The action fantasy does well with the wonders of nature but the listless plot relies mostly on the boy's harrowing escapes, especially in the story's big but bumpy finish.
