This is the real story of the jungles made famous in Rudyard Kipling's 'Jungle Book'. It is a battlefield ruled by tooth and claw, where species fight for space, water, food, and mating rights. This is a world that knows nothing of compassion or kindness, dominated by two of the world's top predators, the Bengal tiger and the Indian wild dog or dhole. Kipling's Jungle Book was fiction.
