The Jungle Book

Factual error: Sloth bears are one of the smallest bears on Earth. Baloo is a sloth bear, but he's about the size of a grizzly bear.

Deliberate mistake: After Baloo and Bagheera escape from the monkeys, they both have a black eye. However, during their conversation by the water, between shots their black eyes vanish. [This is a Disney tradition, but still a mistake.]

Question: Why was Bagheera not happy that Baloo survived his fight with Shere Khan?
