Suggested correction: Mowgli starts with the left shoulder. After that he moves over the back when Baloo arches and ends up on the right shoulder.

Suggested correction: Mowgli has lived with wolves for God knows how long. Wolves wouldn't just teach him the difference between left and right when they could teach him how to feed himself. For this reason, Mowgli could get it wrong. Also, the bear could've muddled up his words without realizing as, again, it isn't necessary to know left and right.

Baloo: You better believe it.

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

Answer: Shere Khan is proud, and having lost a fight, may come back seeking revenge. And if he finds Mowgli, the tiger may try to kill the boy, as Khan sees all humans as a threat.
