	Akela (The Jungle Book) Akela (''Akelā'' also called The Lone Wolf or Big Wolf) is a fictional character in Rudyard Kipling's stories, ''The Jungle Book'' (1894) and ''The Second Jungle Book'' (1895). He is the leader of the Seeonee pack of Indian wolves and presides over the pack's council meetings. It is at such a meeting that the pack adopts the lost child Mowgli and Akela becomes one of Mowgli's mentors. ''Akelā'' means "single or solitary" in Hindi. Kipling also calls him the ''Lone Wolf: Kipling portrays Akela with the character of an English gentleman. This is shown by his recurring references to the honour of the pack. He is large and grey and leads the pack by virtue of his strength and cunning. Character history Nine or ten years after Mowgli's adoption, his enemy Shere Khan the tiger, with the aid of some young wolves he has persuaded to support him, plans to depose Akela so that he will no longer be able to defend Mowgli.

	Akela (Scouting) The Scouting program has used themes from ''The Jungle Book'' by Rudyard Kipling since 1916. In 1914 Robert Baden-Powell announced a Junior Section for Scouting. In 1916, he published his own outlines for such a scheme, to be called Wolf Cubbing. Baden-Powell may have had a number of reasons to call this section Wolf Cubs: Wolf was the name of the cannon made in the railway workshops at Mafeking. By analogy, a young boy not old enough to be a wolf or true Scout could be a baby wolf or Wolf Cub. Baden-Powell asked his friend Rudyard Kipling for the use of his ''Jungle Book'' history and universe as a motivational frame in cub scouting. Baden-Powell wrote a new book, ''The Wolf Cub's Handbook'', for junior members. In 1917, junior members became known as Wolf Cubs. In the 1960s and later, the ''Wolf Cub'' section departed in many organizations from the jungle theme. Some changed their name to Cub Scout or something similar but retained the Jungle Stories and Cub ceremony as trad ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
