Tarzan has not been killed by anyone or anything so far. That question will go unanswered for a while.
In the book Tarzan of the Apes, he didn't. He went naked until he killed the cannibal whom had killed Kala. Then Tarzan stole the cannibal's loincloth and put it on himself. ;)
The name of the Ape which raised Tarzan as her own after his parents were killed is called 'Kala', although we never find out the name of his bioloical moher as she only features in a very shot part at the start of the flm and doesn't have much of a character within the book or film.

The Welshman who played Tarzan is Ron Ely. He starred as the iconic character in the television series "Tarzan" that aired from 1966 to 1968, as well as in the 1970 film "Tarzan, the Ape Man."
