It’s not “Trick or Treat” time for Lord Greystoke, and it’s not “Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner” either; it’s home invasion time jungle style! This is why you never, ever leave your doors, or windows open kiddies!! Jambo, Bwana Q, APOI, Brickhouse and the rest of you loyal readers.
Well, I see it all now. I’m guessing we won’t get to see the actual mauling, but will see the ape leaving the cabin with baby Tarzan. His adolescence will be filled with angst, because his friends all have tails and he doesn’t. I doubt that will get into the storyline, though.
does Greystoke survive this meeting in order to make the account of it in his journal that Tarzan is referencing? Maybe Tarzan heard this part of his story from the apes?
Finally here, all you fine fellows, as usual our expert Katman with his wit and humor, along with Brickhouse (any Romantic forays of late?LOL)—RayC who is really getting into this little drama—and of course Apersonof interest, taking time from his drawing board to join the fray—and we must welcome Teh to our jungle of yesterday too. Looks like destiny catches up with Lord Greystoke, on the day of feasts tomorrow—happy holiday to all!

@APersonOfInterest, No ‘tails’? Not even a little story? How about at least a poem? (sorry, couldn’t resist)

That’s alright—Burroughs at first wrote about Tigers in Africa—later on all species could appear as we went to the earth’s core and other Envrions.

OK, did ERB ever visit Africa?

No, apparently ERB did not visit Africa. See: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edgar_Rice_Burroughs under #3 Popular Culture, 5th bullet.
