“The Jungle Book” Goofs List

• Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): Baloo asks Mowgli to scratch his left shoulder, however when Mowgli scratches him, he scratches his right
• Continuity: When Colonel Hathi orders the troops to halt it is clear that Winifred is at the front. However, later in the scene, a gray elephant appears to be at the front instead.
• Continuity: When Bagheera drops baby Mowgli off with the wolf pack, he leaves the basket at the mouth of the cave den. When he leaves the baby, the basket is closed and when he looks back from his hiding place, the basket is open.
• Errors in geography: During the “The Bare Necessities” song, Baloo is shown picking the fruit off Prickly Pear cacti – a type of plant that only grows in North America and nowhere near India.
• Continuity: When the Indian girl is kneeling by the water at the end, singing, as she fiddles with one of her pigtails and flips it back you can see that it is still tied with the purple ribbon. However, the shot right after she fiddles with her other braid shows both ribbons as missing and her hair loose.
• Errors in geography: The story takes place in India, yet King Louie is an orangutan – they live in Borneo and Sumatra.
• Errors in geography: The monkeys are hanging from their tails in several scenes, but monkeys with grasping tails are only found in South America.
• Errors in geography: Set in India, yet King Louie and all of his monkey friends make their home in ancient ruins of Angkor Wat, which are found in present-day Cambodia, not India.
• Continuity: Although Baloo has only four claws on either hand in most scenes, in a few he also has additional opposable thumbs.
• Continuity: Colonel Hathi breaks his stick; in the next scene it is intact, then broken again.
• Incorrectly regarded as goofs: After the fight with the monkeys Baloo and Bagheera have a black eye. There is a later shot from below the water that some have misinterpreted as a reflected (mirror image) shot, showing the black eyes on the same sides as they have been throughout.
• Continuity: When Baloo and Bagheera are trying to rescue Mowgli from the monkeys, Baloo opens a door smashing it against Bagheera. The door has no handle. The next shot is a close-up of Bagheera’s head with the door behind it; the door has now a handle.
