One day Wamba's child falls sick and she asks her inebriated husband to get Dr. Rice, the surgeon at the British Trading Post, some miles distant. Pete turns a deaf ear to his wife's pleadings and finally when he is in a drunken stupor the sympathetic mother love of Wamba asserts itself and she deserts him. She reaches the doctor's home where she is kindly received, and after hearing of the brutality inflicted upon her by her husband. Dr. and Mrs. Rice decide to protect her by retaining her in their household. The doctor is unable to save Wamba's child and it passes away. Pete, in the meantime, discovers that his wife and child have disappeared and tracks them through the jungle to the doctor's home. He attempts to drag Wamba away, but the doctor intercedes, thus incurring the everlasting enmity of the treacherous drunkard. Pete leaves the house, vowing vengeance, but lingers in its vicinity and one day when Dr. and Mrs. Rice visit a neighboring settlement he crawls behind the unsuspecting Wamba, hits her on the head, knocking her unconscious, and abducts the doctor's child, Lillian. But the little girl manages to escape through the jungles, followed closely by Pete. After escaping many tortuous deaths by the ferocious lions, she arrives at the edge of a high precipice. She turns and sees Pete close behind with a lion following him. The next moment she throws herself over the precipice into the waters below and swims to the other shore. Pete follows, but instead of swimming to the other side, hides himself under an overhanging rock. Meanwhile Wamba has regained consciousness and takes the trail of the missing Lillian, whom she finds about to take refuge in a hollow log from the carnivorous lions. Wamba seizes her rifle and begins shooting and soon the little girl is clutched to, the bosom of the mulatto woman. The Rices return, and discovering that their daughter and Wamba are missing, form a posse and start in pursuit, Lillian and Wamba are found and the posse then takes the trail to Pete's shack, where they find all that remains of him after a conflict with the lions.

- DirectorGeorge P. BreakstonStarsGeorge P. BreakstonYorke CoplenRonald DavidsonWhile most of the footage is indeed authentic and the safari journey and the reason is real, this is far from being qualified as a documentary since it is filled with stock-footage and staged-incidents to add to the film moments of suspense and/or peril that were not part of the actual expedition, i.e., the camera shows a wild beast stalking the safari with the narrator explaining that the man is unaware that he is being stalked until the animal jumps and kills him. Obvious question would be why didn't the cameraman warn him? The film tells the story of two explorers, George Breakston and Yorke Coplen, setting out to make a photographic record of animal life, and the lives of the tribes they encounter along the way. It is broken up into three segments---the journey from Nairobi to the Land of the Pgymies; the trip from there to the territory of the Masai tribe; and the Masai tribe itself.
- This documentary follows a Central and South American expedition led by explorer Lewis Cotlow. The travelogue begins on the San Blas Islands off the coast of Panama, where the crew visit the San Blas Indians. The narrator describes their colorful dress and notes that the chief product of the island is coconuts. Continuing their travels to the Port of Belem off the coast of Brazil, the crew take a riverboat up the Amazon River, detouring up a tributary, where they spot many wild birds, including toucans, egrets and papagayos. After a brief encounter with a tribe known as the Bororos, who reveal their fishing techniques, they canoe to a section of the river in Peru to visit the Yagua tribe. Male members of the tribe take the crew on a leopard hunt using blowguns and then return to the camp to celebrate. The next stop is the Guano Islands, off the coast of Peru, where seals and guanyos are prevalent. The crew return to the coast to visit with the Colorados Indians, who use red paste made from a native seed to cover their bodies and that of the narrator's, who joins them in decorating his body. The crew then travel to the western base of the Andes Mountains in search of the "hot-tempered" Jivaro tribe. As a result of the Jivaros' religious beliefs that they must seek revenge for the murder of any member of their own family, they have become headhunters. The narrator describes the entire process, from the murder and decapitation to the boiling water process used to shrink the heads. The film closes with narrator commenting that "only men crueler than nature can survive" in the wild terrain of the Amazon jungle.
