As the trio battle their way through the treacherous jungle, what began as a professional rivalry soon turns into a personal rivalry as well, and the two men engage in a strange combat that can end only with the destruction of one of them. Always between them is Anna watching, waitingas much the prize as is the black killer leopard they both pursue.

[Catherine Lienhard]

The Eternal Triangle [love triangle] in the Malay jungle. The E.T. out to capture live animals for the Munich Zoo.

Rather ghastly ending--the escaped leopard killing families in an apartment house.
