Kaa is a fictional character from The Jungle Book stories written by Rudyard Kipling. He is a giant snake who is 30 feet long.

In the books and many of the screen adaptations, Kaa is an ally of main protagonist Mowgli, acting as a friend and trusted mentor or father figure alongside Bagheera and Baloo. However, Disney's screen adaptations portray him as a secondary antagonist who attempts to eat Mowgli.

Kaa is a snake who is the minor villain on Pooh's Adventures of The Jungle Book. He used a powerful ability to hypnotize people with his eyes.

In The Dark Side of N.I.M.H (Nintendo D.S), Kaa appeared as one of the bosses.
