Earlier this week I was gonna do a riff on a noble jungle dweller with either a theropod or a giant cyclopean ape as an animal companion. Then I thought, hey, Tarzan types are cool, but not as cool as having both the critters. I think I might have seen something like this in a movie once or twice.

Peter Jackson's King Kong has my favorite scene like this! Think he starts off against two.
