The last of Creator/ChuckJones' ''Literature/TheJungleBook'' trilogy, ''Mowgli's Brothers'' is the only special that adapts one of the Mowgli stories. It featured Creator/RoddyMcDowall as the narrator and the entirety of the male cast and Creator/JuneForay as Raksha, the lone female character. Outside of expanding the roles of Baloo and Tabaqui and Shere Khan being white rather than lame, it is an exceptionally faithful adaptation.

!!Examples:
* AbledInTheAdaptation: Zigzagged. While lame in the Mowgli stories, here Shere Khan is portrayed as able-bodied, but as white, exchanging a physical disability for a lack of camouflage.
* AdaptationalModesty: In the original text, Mowgli was naked. The special gets around this by having him steal cloth to make a loincloth.
* AmazingTechnicolorWildlife: For some unfathomable reason Tabaqui, a golden jackal who should be either pale creamy yellow or dark tawny beige depending on the time of year, is portrayed as green.
* AscendedInTheExtra: Baloo and Tabaqui both have expanded roles in the special.
* DarkIsEvil: The wolves that side with Shere Khan are all black furred.
* LightIsNotGood: Shere Khan is portrayed as a white tiger and is the main antagonist.
* OddballInTheSeries: Out of Chuck Jones' Jungle Book trilogy, this was the only Mowgli story adapted with the other two stories being ''Rikki-Tikki-Tavi'' and ''The White Seal.'' However, this trilogy has two oddballs, as ''Rikki-Tikki-Tavi'', not featuring Roddy McDowall as the narrator and the entire male cast.
* TruerToTheText: Coming nine years after the infamously DisownedAdaptation that is the animated Disney film, this special follows the source quite closely.
