1. Neck bristles- gives you image of the wolf's fur standing on end.
2. Mowgli "The Frog" gives us image of how Mowgli looked and maybe his stance like crouched like a frog.
3. Laughing and playing gives you image of Mowglis mood at the time. he is not scared or sad. he is happy
4. Glistening in the moonlight gives us time of day and the kind of night it was. not rainy or stormy or cloudy but clear causing the moonlight to reflect the light
The imagery in the passage shows Mother Wolf's "neck-bristles lifted." This shows that she is anxious or nervous about presenting Mowgli to the Pack. She most likely wants to protect him and will defend him if he is threatened.
