Quick Synopsis

After surviving a plane crash in the African jungle as a baby, George is raised by a family of gorillas. As he grows up, George becomes strong but clumsy, living among many animal friends including Tookie, a toucan who delivers messages; Ape, a clever gorilla who can talk; and Shep, an elephant who loves peanuts and acts like a dog. When poachers threaten his animal friends, George steps in to protect them and defend the jungle.

Detailed Synopsis of George of the Jungle

Deep in the African jungle, a baby named George, the sole survivor of a plane crash, is raised by gorillas. George grows up to be a buff and lovable klutz who has a rainforest full of animal friends: Tookie, his big-beaked toucan messenger; Ape, a witty talking gorilla; and Shep, a peanut-loving pooch of an elephant. But when poachers mess with George's pals, the King of Swing swings into action.
