The Dholes are minor antagonists in the Jungle Cubs TV series, and were the main antagonists in their only appearance, "Red Dogs". They are a notorious pack of Dhole|dholes who, according to Bagheera, are marauders that almost destroyed the jungle, where the cubs lived, the last time they came.
Role in the series[]
In the series, an episode featured the cubs driving the dholes out of the jungle by themselves; with the dogs attempting to attack Khan in the temple where the cubs hung out. Bagheera, Kaa, Hathi, and Louie lured the dholes into a chase, each one hiding after a certain distance to allow another to take over, culminating in Baloo tricking them into falling into a gorge filled with bees.
Trivia[]
- Like the cubs (excluding Louie), the wolves, and Mowgli, the Dholes are characters adapted from the original novel.
- The Dholes are also the ones who kill Akela in The Second Jungle Book.
- The Dholes resemble the original design of Tabaqui and also Don Karnage. Ironically, both them and their pack leader are both voiced by Jim Cummings.
