action
The American cowboy champion Jim Sinclair and his Indian helper John Henry are hired by an African ranch owner for three months. The former English officer wants to try to breed African game in order to face an impending famine in the future. His white ranchers - especially his neighbor - try to prevent this from happening.
Under difficult circumstances, Jim and John catch all sorts of game species with the lasso and, thanks to a white doctor's assistant, can also win some men from the Maasai tribe as friends. On the last day before departure, the nasty neighbor lets all animals out of the enclosure so that the government official does not find any animals to report on success or failure to Nairobi . But in the course of the day the wild animals come back to the feeding places in the gates. Jim takes his helper in his arms and stays in Africa; for a multiple task awaits him, worthy of the pioneering spirit of his ancestors.
