Although it is unseen on screen, they are killed by Sabor, as seen when Kala rescues Tarzan from her after seeing their bodies. Eventually, they were avenged by Tarzan as an adult, who would grow up to kill Sabor.
They are then found and killed by Sabor the leopard, though Tarzan survived ending up as an orphan. Kala later found their dead bodies along with cat-made paw-prints of (supposedly) their blood: evidence that Sabor had been responsible.
In the film's retelling Tarzan's parents are killed by Sabor the leopard, and Kala saves the infant Tarzan from Sabor, not Kerchak. Her own child having been previously killed by the same leopard, Kala adopts Tarzan as her own, though Kerchak disapproves of this.
Tarzan's family consisted of his parents, John Clayton and Alice Rutherford, who were British aristocrats. They were shipwrecked off the west coast of Africa and were subsequently stranded on the continent.
They get shipwrecked, and somehow they really washed way far away from the Scandinavian waters, and they end up in the jungle. They end up building a tree house and a leopard kills them, so their baby boy is raised by gorillas.
You're Not Gonna Believe Clayton's Hidden Relationship With Tarzan's Parents...
What is the theory that Tarzan is Elsa and Anna's brother?
"In my little head, Anna and Elsa's brother is Tarzan," he told MTV. "That's my fun little world." Director Chris Buck confirms that, in his mind, the sisters in ''Frozen'' (left) are the older sisters of Tarzan (right).
Despite what Disney fans may believe, Tarzan is not related to "Frozen" characters Anna and Elsa. "Can I put one rumor to rest that is my fault? Tarzan's parents are not Anna and Elsa's parents," said codirector Chris Buck during a 20th anniversary panel for "Tarzan" to a lot of applause from the crowd.
"William Mildin, 14th Earl of Streatham, was the real-life inspiration for Tarzan of the Apes. In 1868 he was shipwrecked off West Africa at the age of 11, and spent 15 years living in the jungle, after which he lived in Thrale Road (not much difference there, then)."
The Snake (Passe-Partout): The traitor who accidentally leads the authorities to the abandoned warehouse where their stash of cigarettes is hidden, and who betrays Tarzan by telling the police that Tarzan crossed the US-Canada border the day a border-control officer was killed.
He shaved with a knife, in order to keep a part of his humanity. As Edgar Rice Borroughs cites in "Tarzan of the Apes": "True, he had seen pictures in his books of men with great masses of hair upon lip and cheek and chin, but, nevertheless, Tarzan was afraid.
Speaking to MTV US, Frozen director confirmed that the sibling theory is true. The idea is that, instead of Anna and Elsa's parents dying in a shipwreck as 'Frozen 'would have you believe, they actually survived and washed up in a jungle - where they gave birth to baby Tarzan and lived in a tree.
Tarzan (White-skin) is his ape name; his English name is John Clayton, Lord Greystoke (the formal title is Viscount Greystoke according to Burroughs in Tarzan, Lord of the Jungle; Earl of Greystoke in later, non-canonical sources, notably the 1984 movie Greystoke).
Additionally, she seems to kill for reasons beyond food, as she kills Tarzan's parents, but leaves the bodies with no intention of eating them, ignoring potential meals just so that she can target children.
Tarzan noted that he feels threatened by anyone that was different from him. As a result, throughout most of Tarzan's early life, Kerchak treated him with disdain and disapproval and refused to accept him as his son or a true part of the family due to him not being a gorilla.
While Tarzan lands safely, the vine runs out of slack and snaps Clayton's neck, killing him. Flashes of lightning briefly illuminating a tree behind Tarzan reveal the gruesome shadow of Clayton's hanged corpse swaying ever so slightly, the jungle having claimed him.
Edgar Rice Burroughs' novel, first published 100 years ago as Tarzan of the Apes, tells the story of John Clayton, a child born to a pair of shipwrecked aristocrats and raised by apes in the coastal jungles of equatorial Africa, eventually living out his days as the king of the jungle.
Jane Porter (later Jane Clayton, Lady Greystoke) is a fictional character in Edgar Rice Burroughs's series of Tarzan novels and in adaptations of the saga to other media, particularly film.
Pretty sure this tale has you wondering about Jane. But sadly for fans of Tarzan's lady friend who first appeared in Tarzan of the Apes — A Romance of the Jungle in 1912 in All-Story, she does appear to be a pure figment of Burroughs' imagination.

The connection between 'The Little Mermaid', 'Frozen', 'Tarzan', and Tangled' Prince Eric from the Little Mermaid is the brother to Anna and Elsa from frozen, and Tarzan, and they're all cousins to Repunzel from Tangled.
Officially, they're not related. As an “Easter egg” in Frozen, Rapunzel and Eugene are shown attending Elsa's coronation. This, combined with Rapunzel's resemblance to Elsa and Anna, and with their mothers' resemblance to each other too, has made many fans theorize that Rapunzel is actually Elsa and Anna's cousin.
