The forests that inspired Kipling's Jungle Book- Pench Kanha Wildlife corridor

Did you know the forests that inspired Rudyard Kipling' Jungle Book were Pench  and Kanha wildlife corridors in central India!
I have matched the iconic locations described in the Jungle Book to the actual locations i found in these forests.
I have also looked at the characters like Sher khan, Balu, Bagheera and map it with the fauna found here. It's a fascinating parallel.
