Shere Khan was a male Bengal tiger, and the main antagonist in The Jungle Book Shōnen Mowgli. He was fearless and indomitable of most things, except he is a pyrophobe (one who fears fire), he is frightened by guns and he withdraws when it comes to an elephant named Hathi. His loathing for humans is part of a history and goes back to his first ancestor's encounter with one.
Shere Khan is a tiger who violates many laws of the jungle, including eating humans and cattle, and over-hunting. He has his service with hyenas and monkeys (and his right hand is the most trusted hyena henchman, Tabaqui) and is also one who pushed the path of the evil Grizzle, a wolf who was once part of the Seeonee wolf pack. Plus, he also appears as Alba's boss.
Appearance[]
Shere Khan is a large yellow, black striped tiger, with a brown nose and white eyes. He has an injury on his right hind leg dealt by Alexander in a fight over Mowgli. Later, other injuries he would receive include: A piercing being made in his forehead after Mowgli attacks him with a long, narrow, sharp-edged rock; the wound over his left eye being made, again by Mowgli, slashing it with a blade in requital for slashing Mowgli's left thigh and harming one of his new human friends/future family members, leaving the tiger disfigured; and in the last showdown, Mowgli defeats and slays Shere Khan by stabbing him in one of his sides.
