Cub Scouts have been inspired by Rudyard Kipling's book
 "The Jungle Book".

 Cubs belong to a 'Pack' and the adult leaders will usually have names based on Jungle Book Characters. The Adult Leader of the pack is called Akela. Some Jungle Book names you may find amongst Cub Leaders:

Akela (Ah-kay-lah)
 The Wolf 
Leader of the Pack

Baloo (Baa-loo) 
the Bear

Bagheera (Bar-gear-ah)  the Panther

Chil (Cheel)
 the Kite

Kaa (Kar) 
the Python

Another distinctive feature of Cub Scouts related to the Jungle Book is the 'Grand Howl', a ceremony included at the opening and closing of Cub Scout meetings.
