"Tarzan" is finding out that New York really is a jungle.

The Broadway show based on the branch-hopping Disney character is set to close July 8 after 486 performances because it isn't making enough money.

"I am disappointed that the Broadway production of 'Tarzan' will close earlier than any of us had hoped, and I would have loved for it to have been as successful in New York as it now is in Holland," Thomas Schumacher, of Disney Theatrical Productions, told The Associated Press.

Despite a score by pop star Phil Collins, "Tarzan" was dogged by negative reviews on Broadway.
