Plot summary
Scenes from three earlier expedition films, Bring 'Em Back Alive, Wild Cargo and Fang and Claw, show a collector of wild animals at work for the world's zoos. In the Sumatran jungle he builds a trap baited with durian fruit, hoping to take a giant orangutan for a zoo in St. Louis. A tiger chases a baby elephant, and he shoots the tiger, then captures the elephant. To take a rare spotted leopard, he shoots off the tree limb that supports the cat. He also builds a four-acre corral and stampedes a herd of elephants into it, then chooses individual animals to send to zoos.
