Intrepid explorers "George" (Onslow Stevens) and his feisty daughter "Patricia" (Peggy Ann Garner) are traipsing through the jungle taking photos when they espy something unexpected in their lenses. It's a boy! Clad in a loincloth and doing his own yodel-free "Tarzan" impersonation, they meet "Bomba" (Johnny Sheffield). He proves really quite useful to the pair when she manages to wander off and get herself lost…
