Hunting is BAD

As an 18-year-old, Tarzan meets a young American woman named Jane Porter. She, her father, and others of their party are marooned on the same coastal jungle area where Tarzan's human parents were 20 years earlier. When Jane returns to the United States, Tarzan leaves the jungle in search of her, his one true love. In The Return of Tarzan, Tarzan and Jane marry. In later books, he lives with her for a time in England.

An edited strip from Kaanga, Lord of the Jungle comic book, vol.1 from the year 1940. Public domain comics. Like Tarzan, Kaanga was a young Caucasian boy whose parents died in the jungle, leaving him to be raised by apes. Unlike Tarzan, his name and exact ancestry were never given. Like Tarzan, he grew up perfectly at home with the wild beasts and other perils of his surroundings, but never felt quite right with civilization. Unlike Tarzan, he had blond hair. Like Tarzan, he nonetheless fell in love with a civilized woman (Ann Mason, whom he met while rescuing her from a slave trader), who became his lifelong mate. Unlike Tarzan — well, once you get past the hair, there wasn't much else about him that wasn't like Tarzan
