Synopsis:
When the infant Tarzan's parents die after being marooned in Africa, childless Kala adopts the baby and raises him as a Great Ape. Over time his superior intelligence begins to give him an edge over his fellows. He repeatedly explores his parents' cabin, teaches himself the rudiments of reading, and finds a hunting knife which he uses, although gravely wounded, to slay the attacking Bolgani.
