Wild with exotic adventure and laugh-out-loud funny animal characters, Disney's Tarzan is a magnificent adaption of Edgar Rice Burrough's classic story of the ape man! Deep within the African jungle, a mother gorilla names an orphaned baby boy Tarzan and adopts him as her own, even though the silverback leader Kerchak shuns the hairless wonder. Growing up alongside his wisecracking ape buddy Terk and neurotic elephant pal Tantor, Tarzan develops all the instincts and prowess of a jungle animal, surfing and swinging through the trees at lighting speed. But with the sudden appearance of Tarzan's own kind - humans - including the beautiful Jane, the only world Tarzan has ever known and the one in which he belongs collide with extraordinary force!
