Baloo "The Funny Bear"

Baloo is a popular Disney character (and the deuteragonist) from the 1967 film The Jungle Book and its sequel, and the main character of the series TaleSpin. He is a sloth bear and best friends with Mowgli. Even though he's not the main character of the film, Baloo has become the most popular Disney character from the Jungle Book. He was voiced by Phil Harris, Ed Gilbert (until their deaths), Steve Curtis Chapman and by John Goodman in The Jungle Book 2.

Personality:

The Disney version of Baloo is very different from the book character on which he's based on. In contrast to the book, where Baloo is a wise old bear who teaches Mowgli the law of the jungle, Disney's Baloo is lazy and laid back. He loves to dance and play games. He hates becoming upset and having to be strict. He also enjoys being around Mowgli. Baloo thinks of Mowgli as his son just as Mowgli thinks of Baloo as his father. 

Appearances:

Baloo is first seen eating and taking a stroll in the jungle when all of a sudden he sees the strangest thing. Baloo takes a closer look at this "thing" and the boy slaps him in the nose. He tells Baloo to go away eventually starting to punch although Baloo can't even feel it. He does the boy a favor and begins teaching him how to fight. Eventually the boy and Baloo become friends and the boy's name is revealed to be Mowgli. Bagheera who is watching Mowgli is ready to take him back to the Man Village. Baloo offers Mowgli the opportunity to stay with him which he accepts gladly but Bagheera does not. Baloo then begins teaching Mowgli of the Bare Necessities. Baloo teaches Mowgli about eating ants, and relaxing. Never work hard and don't waste time looking around for something you may want but it can't be found. 

Baloo is a Bear tender and affectionate and makes us laugh a lot!!!
