"Mowgli's Brothers" is a short story by Rudyard Kipling. Chronologically it is the first story about Mowgli although it was written after "In the Rukh" in which Mowgli appears as an adult. The story first appeared in the January 1894 issue of ''St. Nicholas Magazine'' and was collected as the first story in ''The Jungle Book'' later in 1894 where it is accompanied by the poem "Hunting Song of the Seeonee Pack". The story also appears in ''All the Mowgli Stories''. In 1992 it was published as a separate volume with woodcut illustrations by Christopher Wormell. The text is available on-line from several sources as part of ''The Jungle Book''. The story was adapted as a 25-minute animated television cartoon by Chuck Jones in 1976. Jones also directed adaptations of "Rikki-Tikki-Tavi" and "The White Seal". ==Animated Special== ''Main Article:'' ''Mowgli's Brothers (1976 TV Special)'' In 1976 ''Mowgli's Brothers'' was adapted and directed as a half-hour television animated special of the same name by veteran animator Chuck Jones, with narration by Roddy McDowall. This could be seen as a bold move considering the success of Disney's ''Jungle Book''. Unlike Disney's version, Jones adhered to the original story, although Shere Khan becomes a white tiger and there is no reference to his lame leg. There is also a brief scene (taken from a notation in the short story and included to avoid depicting Mowgli's nudity) in which he steals some cloth and makes himself a loin cloth after seeing humans wearing clothes. Jones also directed adaptations of "Rikki-Tikki-Tavi" and "The White Seal". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mowgli's Brothers」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
