'''Sabor''' is a ferocious leopard who first appeared in Walt Disney's ''{{w|Tarzan (1995 film)|Tarzan}}'' and, in ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}'', serves as a mini-boss in [[Deep Jungle]].


Sabor is a deadly leopard from Walt Disney's ''[[wikipedia:Tarzan|Tarzan]]'', where it was discovered that he was behind the death's of both Tarzan's parents and Kala's newborn baby. He serves as a mini-boss of the world, and is fought a number of times.
==Story==
===''Kingdom Hearts''===
When [[Sora]] first arrives in Deep Jungle, he falls into a wooden tree house and is attacked by Sabor. [[Tarzan]] rescues the Keyblade wielder from the leopard, who continues to stalk them. Sabor appears a final time in the Bamboo Thicket before being slain once and for all. Upon his defeat, one of his [[White Fang]]s was claimed as an Accessory Item.


When [[Sora]] first arrives in the Deep Jungle, he falls into a wooden tree house and meets Sabor immediately. Being too weak after the fall, Sabor takes a jump on him, but [[Tarzan]] comes to the rescue just in time.
==Design==
Sabor is a large {{w|African leopard}} with a slender, yet muscular build. He has yellow fur; the fur around his mouth, on the bottoms of his paws, on his stomach, and on the tip of his tail is white. Sabor's head and legs have black spots on them, and his back and shoulders sport yellow-orange spots with black outlines. Sabor's eyes are yellow, and he has six long, black whiskers; there are three on each side of his upper lip. Protruding from Sabor's paws are sharp black claws.


He then appears in many places in attempt to attack Sora, Tarzan, [[Donald]] and [[Goofy]]. When Sora and his friends go to confront [[Clayton]], they encounter Sabor one final time and he is finally defeated. The world's accessory is obtained, the [[White Fang]].
==Strategy==
The only attacks in Sabor's arsenal are a non-elemental tackle and claw swipe. The leopard is extremely fast, as well, making him difficult to attack for extended periods of time.  


==Journal Entries==
In order to defeat Sabor, Sora should rely primarily on his standard three-hit combo and attack only after the leopard charges at him. Sora should then be sure to [[Dodge Roll]] out of the way to avoid being damaged by potential counterattacks; he can also block Sabor's attacks with [[Guard]] to earn Tech Points. The outcome of Sora's first battle with Sabor is the same whether he wins or loses; during an extended period of time in the said first battle, Sabor may break the floor inside of the tree house, which leaves a hole that remains for the rest of the game. 
===''Kingdom Hearts''===
 
''A leopard feared by all who live in the jungle, and an enemy of Tarzan and the gorillas. Sabor is a cunning hunter who targets the weak and helpless.''
During his final encounter with Sora in the Bamboo Thicket, Sabor jumps out of sight before reappearing in a different part of the battlefield. To avoid being hit by a potential surprise attack, Sora should Lock-On to the leopard just before he vanishes. Throughout this battle, Magic is Sora's best means of damaging Sabor when the leopard is too far away to be hit by physical attacks. It is also important that Sora heal himself regularly to help ensure victory; while Sabor's attacks are not that powerful they can be dangerous when combined with the leopard's agility.


''He stalked onto the scene in "Tarzan" (1999).''
It is possible to skip the third battle against Sabor entirely. If Sora enters the Tent before fighting him, the subsequent cutscene{{?}} plays, and the leopard does not appear afterwards.{{fact}}

==Appearances==
==Origin==
* [[Deep Jungle]]
Sabor first appeared in Walt Disney's 1999 animated feature, ''Tarzan''. While described as male in ''Kingdom Hearts'', Sabor's gender is ambiguous in the film, but is confirmed to be female by an interview on the movie with the supervisory animator, {{w|Dominique Monféry}}. In the beginning of the film, she hunts and kills [[Kerchak]] and [[Kala]]'s young son. She then goes on to murder the infant Tarzan's parents. Before Sabor is able to kill Tarzan as well, Kala comes to the baby's rescue.


==Strategy==
Many years later, after Tarzan has grown into a man, Sabor attacks him and his gorilla family at their nest. In an effort to protect the other gorillas, Kerchak engages the fearsome leopard in combat, but he is overpowered. Tarzan then joins the fight; he manages to kill Sabor and presents the leopard's body to Kerchak in a show of respect.


Sabor's main attack is a non-elemental, forward dash that acts as a tackle with fangs and claws. If you stay in front of him, he will also be prompted to swipe you with his claws. His speed in battle cannot be matched, and his leaps across the fighting grounds allow him to make risk-free, long range attacks. You may '''Dodge Roll''' out of harm's way or '''Guard''' yourself against his attacks - the second option is a better option as it is easier to execute, with fewer risks, and it will give Sora more experience.

Don't fret if you don't get through the first battle - win or lose, the outcome will be about the same. However, do pay attention to the rest of your battles with Sabor.

In Sabor's final battle (in the Bamboo Grove) he will jump out of sight, and jump back into the arena at a different location. It is impossible to keep an eye on him, so utilising the '''Lock-On''' function is the best way to assure he does not get a surprise attack in. In all cases, if you have not trained Sora well enough, do be sure to heal him often.
