Several big game hunters, headed by Major Frederick Brown, scientist and sportsman, travel to Mombasa in Kenya to begin their search for the gorilla. From Mombasa, they travel upriver through mangrove trees that contain oyster beds in their roots. The expedition encounters hippopotami, pythons, crocodiles and small carnivorous fish as well as gnu and giraffes. They hunt rhino, gazelle and elephant. The hunters witness a lion attack and afterward kill several of the animals. The expedition moves into the area around the Congo called French Equatorial Africa, where they encounter the Ubani. The Ubani expand their lips by inserting progressively larger discs into a slit until they are the desired size. Further upriver, they stop at a Kavirondu village. The Kavirondu consider the leopard sacred. The expedition decides to trap a live leopard while they are in the area. The Iturbi forest is inhabited by Pygmy tribes
