Plot

When his shipwrecked parents are killed by a leopard named Sabor, an infant is left all alone high atop his family's African jungle tree house. His isolation isn't for long, however, as Kala, a friendly gorilla, finds and adopts the boy, naming him Tarzan. Having recently lost her baby to Sabor, Kala is happy to have another child, but while the silverback patriarch of the ape family, Kerchak, allows her to raise Tarzan, he says that the human will never be his son.
