Bomba is a boy who grew up in the jungle, trying to discover his origin. Introduced in 1926 through a series of 20 adventure books produced by Stratemeyer Syndicate under the pseudonym Roy Rockwood, Bomba was played by Johnny Sheffield in a series of 12 movies starting in 1949.
This version is based upon actor Luke Halpin, who played Sandy Ricks in the 1964 television series Flipper. I imagine that Halpin, being cute, blond, and athletic, with all-American good looks, would naturally be cast in another outdoor adventure series, like Bomba.
In this series, the hunter does not appear to be finished playing with his young catch.
