* King Louie, in a mixture of KickTheDog and MoralEventHorizon, telling Mowgli during the chase that Shere Khan killed Akela....and further twisting the knife by saying it was probably on account of him. Later, he finds out that not only was Louie not lying, but Bagheera and Baloo already knew and didn't tell him.

* Throughout the film Bagheera sounds fairly down and subdued, likely because of his own grief with having to send Mowgli to the man village and likely never see him again.

** Mowgli's angered reaction them both when he does find out shows some effective acting chops for a child actor on his first feature film!

Added DiffLines:

* Heck, even the fact that Shere Khan is killed off in this version is heartbreaking. He survives in the 1967 movie, and continues to appear as a recurring villain or anti-hero in other media.

Page remade in the properly capitalised namespace.

Added DiffLines:

* Mowgli's goodbye with Raksha.
-->"Never forget this. You are mine. Mine to me, no matter where you may go or what they may call you, you will always be my son."
* Shere Khan [[spoiler:killing Akela.]]
* Baloo telling Mowgli [[spoiler:he never saw him as a friend [[BreakHisHeartToSaveHim so that the boy may be persuaded to leave the jungle and get away from Shere Khan]].]]
-->'''Baloo:''' Well, I did it. And that's about the hardest thing I ever had to do.
-->'''Bagheera:''' I know.
* The pleading look Bagheera gives Baloo when he asks for his help. Noteworthy, since Bagheera is a rather composed feline who rarely shows emotion.
* Throughout the film Bagheera sounds fairly down and subdued, likely because of his own grief with having to send Mowgli to the man village and likely never see him again.

* The scene of a mother bird feeding the massive cuckoo chick in her nest. Shere Khan having just explained how cuckoos operate, and keeping in mind that all the animals in the jungle are sapient, it's profoundly depressing.
