Parents guide

A youthful nine-year old boy wears a thick, tightly-wrapped red-orange cloth diaper langot. He is bare-chested and his midriff shows his belly button. All of the other animals are also nude but no genitals are shown.

A scene shows a black panther tugging on the boy's thick cloth diaper langot. The boy stretches his skinny legs (which reveals his butt cheeks), pressing his feet on the panther's cheeks, which causes his durable langot to stretch far too wide and thin, briefly exposing the boy's rear end before the panther tumbles backward.

The film contains a several scenes of mild violence, such as a boy pulling a snake's tail causing it to knock its head against a branch, or a tiger biting a bear on its rear and a tiger catching fire from a branch that is tied to its tail. However, these scenes are portrayed humorously with comical sound effects, and do not depict any detail of injury.

Much of the movie contains multiple scenes of cartoony comic slapstick violence, played for laughs.

One use of "swingers." (Context: The animal singing about being the "King of the swingers" is an orangutan, who obviously swings from tree to tree in the jungle)

The villains Shere Khan and (mostly) Kaa may upset very young children.

Lots of cartoony comic slaptick violence is used in this movie. Very brief loud accordion music is used at the scenes where Kaa gets his knotted tail stuck in between two trees and eventually pulls it out like a spring. The climax features a very intense, brutal showdown. A bear gets bitten in the rear end before he is struck, clawed and slashed in the face by a tiger and faints (this scene has made a lot of viewers cry historically). Fortunately, he survives and is revealed to be unconscious as the tiger flees with fire on a stick tied to his tail (the rain extinguishes the wasteland forest fire while the tiger flees unharmed, but is still terrified).
