Father and Mother Wolf's Reaction

Father Wolf is shocked and indignantly claims that Shere Khan must inform everyone when he changes his hunting grounds, as it is against the Jungle Law.

Mother Wolf senses unease because she realizes that the tiger's roar is different, and he is not hunting bullocks or bucks, but something forbidden in the jungle - a human.

Father Wolf picks up the baby with his teeth, without scratching or hurting him, and lays him by Mother Wolf's side. The baby pushes the other cubs aside to get closer to Mother Wolf and smiles at her happily.
