Bombay, the tiger who played Shere Khan, could also fall into this.

But for the grown-up Mowgli they decided on the Ambiguously Brown route, and went with the Chinese-Hawaiian Jason Scott Lee.

WTH, Casting Agency?: Mowgli should, logically speaking, be Indian, seeing as the story is set in India and seeing how the child Mowgli is clearly Indian and has a clearly Indian father.
