Ivory poachers, headed by Lyra the She-Devil, Vargo and Fidel, capture a native tribe to carry their loot. Tarzan intervenes and is captured. Jane is also captured and believed killed, so the despairing Tarzan endures endless torture until he learns she is alive. He rises to the occasion and leads his elephants in the usual victory stampede.—Ed Stephan <[email protected]>

When hunters discover several large herds of elephants, they realize there is a fortune to be made in ivory. The poachers - Varga, Lyra and Fidel - take tribesmen captive in their plan to harvest the ivory. The tribe's women ask Jane for help but when their jungle home is burned down, Tarzan believes she is dead. She has survived however and when Tarzan learns she is well, he turns the poachers prey upon them.—garykmcd

Devoid of sympathy and compassion, ruthless and opportunistic Lyra invades the virgin jungles of Africa. Hell-bent on building a lucrative ivory trade, Lyra, and her equally vicious henchmen, Vargo and Fidel, intend to slaughter elephants by the dozen, going as far as to burn Tarzan's tree-house to the ground. With Jane presumed dead, and the mighty defender of the helpless with his back to the wall, facing slow and excruciating death, all hope seems lost. Can the formidable elephants take their revenge on the oppressors and Lyra, the She-Devil?—Nick Riganas
