Kala (Tarzan)
Kala is a fictional ape character in Edgar Rice Burroughs's original Tarzan novel, ''Tarzan of the Apes'', and in the Walt Disney-produced animated movie ''Tarzan'' based on it.
==History==
In the novel, Kala is a female in a band of ''Mangani'', a fictional species of Great Ape intermediate between real life chimpanzees and gorillas. She saves the infant Tarzan from the murderous fury of Kerchak, the mad leader of the ape band, after the latter kills Tarzan's human father. Kala goes on to rear the human baby as her own while protecting him against Kerchak and her own mate, Tublat. After Tarzan reaches adulthood, Kala is killed by a native African hunter, who is afterward killed by Tarzan in revenge.〔''Tarzan of the Apes'' (1912 novel)〕
Kala also appears in ''Jungle Tales of Tarzan'', the sixth book of the Tarzan series, which relates episodes from the ape man's youth omitted from ''Tarzan of the Apes''. Chapter 7, "The End of Bukawai," relates an episode in which Tarzan is almost killed when he swings so long on the rope that it frays and parts, dropping him to the ground. Kala runs to the boy's aid and he soon revives.〔''Jungle Tales of Tarzan'' (1919 novel)〕
