Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs for June 14, 2020

Pug marks? He’s chasing a pug?

Odd that Tarzan, with his mastery of French, English, Arabic, and multiple African tribal dialects, (not to mention using the ape language word “numa” for lion) should use the Hindi word “pug” – which means foot or footprint – when normally he refers to tracks as “spoor”

Later at night, Tarzan sees a glowing skull and in the morning goes on to a new adventure.

We had a pug named Choo-Choo, or maybe it was Chew-Chew. (Gee I’ll bet no one ever thought of that name for a pug.) Anyway, she could probably irritate Tarzan enough with her yapping, that he’d run away.

Tarzan has been talking to himself and running for a month

It’s getting time to dig a pit and capture Numa.

Less talk more action Tarzan.

Looks like by the time Tarzan reaches Numa, Numa would’ve grown old and died.

Wounded and “recovered” Numa is taking his revenge on innocent people. Go find some more poachers and cowardly big-game hunters Numa…..kill them all!

If he is still dragging the body and in the water, he still won’t be too hard to track. You can often tell which direction something was traveling when in the water by the pattern. Except a fish, they’re harder than the dickens to track. ;)

When last seen, Numa had received his MBA and set up a small import export firm in Belgium.

T’Zan! Run, run, as fast as you can…and, well, something is bound to happen sooner or later, I think. Maybe not….
