Who told the villagers that mowgli was a wolf child?

In Rudyard Kipling's "The Jungle Book," it is Bagheera, the Black Panther, who informs the villagers that Mowgli is a "wolf child." He recognizes Mowgli's unique upbringing among the wolves and understands that the villagers need to know about him, especially when Mowgli begins to interact with human society. Bagheera's revelation highlights the tension between Mowgli's dual identity as both a human and a member of the wolf pack.
