Tiger in The Jungle Book (5,4)

I believe the answer is:

shere khan

'tiger in the jungle book' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for shere khan that I've seen before include "Tiger in The Jungle Book" , "Jungle Book character?" , "Jungle beast" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
