Tarzan

Clayton tricks Tarzan into getting on the boat with Jane so that Clayton can lock them all up. Turns out Clayton plans to kill/hunt/sell the gorillas. Tarzan's friends free him from the boat and he and Jane arrive in the jungle to stop the bandits, but Kerchac has already been shot. Clayton and Tarzan face off in the treetops, where Tarzan says he's a man, but he's not like Clayton. Clayton draws a machete and tries to cut Tarzan up, but he gets caught in vines, cutting several of them, but in such a way that he ends up hanging himself. Tarzan runs to Kerchac, who makes him the leader of the gorillas, then dies.As Jane and her father are on a boat to go back to England, they both decide to stay in the jungle instead of going back to England.

Factual error: When the humans are capturing the gorillas, Clayton fires about 15 rounds from his double rifle. This is pretty impressive, considering this is the early 1900's.

Question: After Sabor the leopard jumps on the net to kill baby Tarzan, it instead launches him up to Kala, who catches him by the diaper. Why does Kala move Tarzan up and down several times?

Answer: Kala, who was on the floor above the netting, was attempting to pull baby Tarzan up through the space around the pole, but it was too small for an infant to fit through. Kala instead pulled Tarzan by his diaper along the slit between the boards to the end of the floor where she could then reach over and pick him up.
