Plot summary

In Wasabi, Africa, anthropologist Dr. Linda Roberts embarks on an expedition to find the rumored land of the Giant People, aided by jungle guide Jungle Jim after her original crew abandons her. As they navigate wildlife attacks and local dangers, government officials and traders become entangled in conflicts over ivory poaching and the captured Giants. Betrayal and greed among the explorers lead to violence and chaos when the Giants escape. In the end, Jungle Jim helps avert an elephant stampede, exposes the true criminals, and restores order to the jungle. [1]
