After the events of The Jungle Book 2, Shere Khan was placed on the Isle. People knew who he was, what he had done, and the consequences of not doing what he demanded. As he was walking home from another day of terrorising children, he heard faint crying. Shere Khan looked around him and he found a box. Inside was a man cub. Shere Khan felt like either killing it or leaving it. He tried leaving it but his mind wouldn't let him. He tried killing it but he didn't have the bravery to so he took it in and raised it as his own.
