Tublat
Tublat is a fictional ape character in Edgar Rice Burroughs's original Tarzan novel, ''Tarzan of the Apes'', and in the Walt Disney-produced animated television series ''The Legend of Tarzan''.
==History==
In the novel ''Tarzan of the Apes'' Tublat (whose name means "Broken Nose") is a member of a tribal band of Mangani, a fictional species of great apes intermediate between chimpanzees and gorillas. In the beginning of the original novel, Tublat's mate Kala 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 both Kerchak and Tublat. Tublat, while portrayed as a fairly passive figure in the novel, is resentful of his foster-son Tarzan, and would kill him given the chance. Tarzan, in response, taunts and teases Tublat from a safe distance. Ultimately, when Tarzan has reached his early teens, Tublat goes mad and attacks Kala. To protect Kala Tarzan fights and kills Tublat.〔''Tarzan of the Apes'' (1912 novel).〕
Tublat 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 episodes in which Tarzan taunts Tublat with his rope and is later almost killed when he swings so long on the rope that it frays and parts, dropping him to the ground. Tublat is glad to see Tarzan injured, though Kala runs to the boy's aid and he soon revives.〔''Jungle Tales of Tarzan'' (1919 novel)〕
