Kitty Swan was known for portraying the jungle girl Gungala in the 1967 sexploitation film Gungala, the Virgin of the Jungle and it's 1968 sequel Gungala, the Black Panther Girl . The film careers of Swan, and co-star Steve Hawkes, were ended after they suffered serious burns on the set of Tarzan and the Brown Prince A 1972 sequel, Tarzan and the Brown Prince, followed with sequences filmed in Rainbow Springs, Florida,[4] where both Sipek and Swan were burned in a fire that got out of control. When the two actors were tied down in a scene, some spilled fuel began a blaze that panicked the film crew. The lion in the film who had been trained to remove Hawkes' bonds freed him.[1] though he suffered 90% burns to his body.[5] Sipek vowed he would pay the lion back by looking after big cats.[6].https://www.total-montenegro-news.com/travel/3443-kitty-swan-salvation
