Kaa's Hunting Preview | The Jungle Book Soundscape Audiobook EP

This is the great war fought with courage in the tiny garden.

Rikki-Tikki-Tavi is a young Indian Grey Mongoose who comes under the care of Teddy, a young English boy who has just moved with his parents into a bungalow in India. Little does Rikki-Tikki know that his arrival is unwelcome by the king and queen of the bungalow's garden - the fearsome cobras Nag and Nagaina. As he discovers the nefarious plan of the cobras, valiant Rikki-Tikki-Tavi summons within himself the courage of his mongoose ancestry to 'fight and kill snakes'.
