Who is Terk?

Terk (short for Terkina) is a beloved character from Disney’s Tarzan (1999). She is a young female gorilla who serves as Tarzan’s spirited, playful, and fiercely loyal best friend. Terk’s personality is defined by her high energy, sass, and tomboyish demeanor, which often brings humor to the film. She is known for her boldness, acting as a protective sister figure to Tarzan, while also introducing him to the fun and mischief of jungle life. Despite her teasing nature, Terk has a heart of gold and consistently supports Tarzan, even during the most challenging moments of his journey to understand both the gorilla and human worlds.

Terk is voiced by actress and comedian Rosie O’Donnell, whose performance brought vibrancy and comedic timing to the character. O’Donnell’s distinctive voice added a layer of charm and relatability to Terk, making her a standout character in the film. The musical scene where Terk leads a group of gorillas in a lively percussion performance using camp supplies, “Trashin’ the Camp,” remains one of the most memorable moments in the movie.
