Lorna the Jungle Girl #20
The Silent Claw!
When news of a new victim of a creature dubbed the "Silent Claw" is reported to Greg Knight by one of his guides, he tells Lorna to stay out of the hunt, once more telling her that a woman has no place in the jungle and that trouble always follows her wherever she goes. He makes her swear not to follow him to learn what his plans are. She swears, but has Mikki secretly follow after him and spy. When the small ape returns, they both swing off into the forest to hunt for the Silent Claw.
Lorna finds the jungle to be too quiet and suddenly spots a leopard that is afraid of something. Lorna goes to check it out and is attacked by the Silent Claw: really a man wearing a clawed gauntlet. The man -- named Jason -- strikes Lorna but she plays possum to attack him. He manages to break free, but Lorna gathers a group of animals from the jungle to attack him forcing the "great" Jason to flee into the jungle to plot revenge later.
Lorna follows after and finds the Silent Claw sleeping in the jungles. Examining his claw she finds that it is laced with a lethal poison and removes it. When Jason awakens he tries to attack Lorna, but without his deadly weapon the jungle girl easily defeats him. Deducing that the men is not well, Lorna and Greg take Jason to a doctor who explains that he was a former circus performer who had a partner that resembled Lorna. Having gone insane and seeing Lorna's picture in a magazine, he came to Africa to kill her and the animals in the jungle. The doctor then tells them that the treatment on Jason is a success and that his madness has been cured.

Jungle Fury!
With a storm raging through the jungle, Lorna and Mikki attempt to find cover when they spot a herd of stampeding elephants and rhinos that are frightened by the storm. Trying to stop them, Lorna is unable to do so, but they soon find themselves falling into a pit fall set up to capture animals. The storm quickly clears out and Lorna begins to try and figure a way to get the animals out of the pit when suddenly she is visited by the two poachers who dug the pit.
Unable to reach them in the pit, Lorna sends Mikki up the side of the trap and toss sand in their faces making them drop their guns. While the poachers are disorientated, Mikki then knocks them into the pit. Now at the mercy of the very animals they sought to catch, the two illegal hunters beg Lorna to save them before the animals trample them to death.
Lorna is instead freed by Mikki who tosses a vine down for her to climb out of the pit. Finding a gate on the opposite end of the pit she sets the animals free. When a vengeful elephant attempts to stomp on the two poachers, Lorna saves their lives but only to tie them up and deliver them to the authorities.

When Jug refuses to listen, Greg has his aids take down the gorilla while he deals with Jug, landing a single punch and knocking him over. Jug tells Greg that he was just trying to save their lives, but Greg points out that the gorilla has calmed. However after the beast is placed in a cage it has no love for Jug, prompting the hunter to vow to get it before it gets him.
That night as they camp out a lion breaks out of its cage followed by the recently captured gorilla. The alarm is sounded and Greg and Jug go out looking for the ape. Once again Jug is poised to kill the ape, but when the lion tries to attack Greg the ape comes to his rescue. The gorilla manages to fight the lion into submission and force it back into its cage before returning to its own as well. Shocked by this, Jug realizes that the gorilla saved Greg in return for saving the ape's life earlier that day and has discovered a new respect for the animals of the jungle.
