There was a howl(嚎叫) from Shere Khan. "He missed," said Mother Wolf. "What is it?"
Father Wolf ran out and heard Shere Khan saying to himself angrily as he fell into the bushes.
"The fool is so silly that he jumped at a woodcutter's fire, and he burned his feet," said Father Wolf in a whisper.
"Something is coming up the hill," said Mother Wolf, putting up one of her ears. "Get ready."
The bushes rustled a little, and Father Wolf dropped his back legs under him, ready for his jump. Then, the most wonderful thing happened. Father Wolf stopped in the middle of his jump. He jumped before he saw what he was jumping at, and then he tried to stop himself. The result was that he jumped straight up into the air for four or five feet, and came down almost where he left the ground.
"Man!" He said in surprise. "A man baby. Look!"
In front of him, stood a baby with nothing on. He was small and soft. He looked up into Father Wolf's face and laughed.
"Is that a man cub(幼崽)?" asked Mother Wolf. "I have never seen one. Bring it here."
A wolf can hold an egg in his mouth without breaking it. Father Wolf picked the baby up with his mouth without hurting the baby as he put the baby down among the wolf cubs.
"How little! How naked! How brave!" said Mother Wolf softly. The baby was moving between the cubs to get close to their warm skin. "Aha! He is having his meal with the others. And so this is a man cub. Now, was there ever a wolf that she could say she had a man cub among her children?"
"In the past I heard of such a thing, but never in our team or in my time," said Father Wolf. "He is without hair and I could kill him with a touch of my foot. But see, he looks up and he is not afraid."
