And what species do you think Baloo should be:

A sloth bear (like in most adaptations)

An Asian Black Bear (like in the Russian animated film, the 1994 remake, and Mowgli's Story)

or

A Himalayan Brown Bear (like how Kipling described him "a sleepy old brown bear", or like in the 2016 remake, and in Mowgli the 2018 Netflix movie)
