Tarzan swings into action to protect sacred wildlife from scheming hunters in the Sukulu jungle.
TARZAN'S HIDDEN JUNGLE
Thundering New Tarzan Thrills!
Hunters trespass into Sukulu country, where animals are sacred, posing as photographers. Their work has the blessing of the U.N.’s Dr. Celliers, close friend of the Sukulu chief. The hunters send the animals across a river where they can be shot, and the natives throw the good doctor and his nurse into a lion pit. Tarzan ape-calls the animals to safety and rescues the medicos.
Watch out for the lion pit—Tarzan's not the only king in this jungle.
Gordon Scott makes his Tarzan debut in a jungle tale where wildlife is just as endangered by double-crossing hunters as by the local lion pit. Expect sacred animals, a dash of romance, and a classic ape-call rescue—no vine left un-swung.
