Trivia
The "African" elephants were actually Indian elephants fitted with prosthetic tusks and ears, as MGM already owned several Indian elephants and considered them easier to handle.

Goofs
After a bearer gets shot, Martin, Harry, and the other carriers hide behind a thicket. One bearer has two shotguns on his right shoulder. In the following shot, he appears with one shotgun on each shoulder.

Quotes
Jane Parker: The best weapon a woman has is a man's imagination.

Alternate versions
In the UK, the 2002 DVD release was cut by 12 secs by the BBFC to remove shots of lions being genuinely tripped to simulate a shooting and a spear killing. The 2005 release features the extended version, but these scenes were pre-cut before submission to the classification board.

The Best Tarzan Movie Ever!

Never before and never since has there been a more wonderful Tarzan movie than this one. While the first Weismuller Tarzan movie, "Tarzan The Ape Man" is required viewing before seeing this one, "Tarzan And His Mate" is the only one to watch if you have to pick just one Tarzan movie. The film delivers in action, excitement and romance on a grand level with Maureen O'Sullivan looking absolutely sexy in her abbreviated costume as Jane. Unfortunately, the iron hand of the Hays Office forced all subsequent Weismuller-O'Sullivan Tarzan films to be toned down in the romance department (with O'Sullivan getting more conservative wardrobe) and the series never came close to this film again. Highly recommended.
