Winifred

Winifred is an elephant who appears in The Jungle Book and it's related media. In the film, she is the mate of Colonel Hathi, and was voiced by Verna Felton.

Background
Winifred is a female Indian Elephant. She is a member of Colonel Hathi's jungle patrol, and appears to be one of only female members, though this may be because she is married to Hathi. Unlike many mothers seen in Disney films, Winifred is snarky and sarcastic, never hesitating to remind Hathi of his faults. However, she is shown to be caring to others, caring enough for the lost Mowgli's welfare that she is willing to convince her husband to initiate a search party for the man-cub. Together, she and her husband have one son, Hathi, Jr., who comes to be friends with Mowgli.

The Jungle Book
Winifred's appearances are during the two Jungle Patrol scenes in the film. In her first appearance, she is shown to march behind Hathi most of the time. However, upon stopping, she complains to a neighboring elephant about how her feet are aching due to her husband's constant marching. She participates in the inspection, and is reprimanded for her back legs not being straight.

After the elephant herd leaves to resume their patrol, she asks Hathi if he's forgotten anything. Though the pompous Hathi insists he never forgets, Winifred notes that he's forgotten their son. Hathi orders an immediate about face, and goes to scold his son for not leaving with the group. However, the rest of the herd, still marching, crashed into them.

Winifred appears in the middle of the film. Bagheera has stopped the herd, in order to seek their help in finding Mowgli, who has run away. Hathi, initially refuses, angering Winifred into breaking ranks in order to set him straight. She calls Hathi a "pompous old windbag", and compares Mowgli to their own son, whom Hathi would most certainly search for if lost. She threatens to overthrow Hathi and take over command if Hathi refuses to help in the search, much to Hathi's shock and disbelief. However, this, combined with an appeal from their son, convinces Hathi to help. Winifred is not seen individually after this, but it can be assumed she assisted the herd in the search.
