The thugs are not seen again after this, so it is unknown what has happened to them. However, it is likely that the captain and his officers put all of the thugs into the ship's brig as their custody and take them back to England so that they can await trial for their crimes (though it was never seen onscreen). |

Clayton's Pirates, also known as Thugs or sometimes known as Clayton's Men, are supporting antagonists in Disney's 37th full-length animated feature film Tarzan, which is based on the 1912 American novel Tarzan of the Apes by the late Edgar Rice Burroughs. Working as a crew to the ship's captain, they were secretly hired by the pompous poacher named Cecil Clayton as his personal henchmen to capture Tarzan's ape family and take them to London, England to be sold to a zoo. The crew consists of about 14 pirates (excluding the captain and his officers, who they turn on in the film's climax).
Jonathan was voiced by Joe Whyte, Larry was voiced by Paul Eiding, Snipes was voiced by Bob Bergen, Jones was voiced by Corey Burton, Max was voiced by Philip Proctor, Kevin was voiced by Frank Simms, Sylvester was voiced by Jack Angel, Hamilton was voiced by Charlie Adler, Peter was voiced by Eddie Korbich, Cornelius was voiced by Ian Redford, David was voiced by Rodger Bumpass, Samuel was voiced by Michael Gough, Florentino was voiced by Patrick Pinney, and Dennis was voiced by Jim Cummings.
Biography
Under the orders of the ship's captain, the thugs are first seen packing up the luggage and supplies of Jane, Archimedes, and Cecil Clayton (much to the latter's dismay) onto the ship to return home to London. When Clayton manipulates Tarzan's feelings for Jane by telling him that she would stay in the Jungle with if he showed them the gorillas, Tarzan agrees. Clayton then informs Snipes to round up the other thirteen pirates together for the next phase of his villainous plan.
When Tarzan, Jane, and Archimedes boarded the ship the next day to return to England, Jane and her father are then captured by Clayton and his thugs (who have also turned on the captain and his officers); after seeing this, Tarzan tried to escape them by jumping on the cages and climbing the ship's masts.
Even though he almost effortlessly avoided them at first, the thugs quickly started to catch up with him, with one of them grabbing him from his ankle. He then shakes him off, but as they were closing in on him, he makes a huge leap from the top of the mast and manages to hold on to the funnel's end, only to fall down shortly afterwards. As Tarzan crawled out of the remnants of the boxes, two of the thugs were quick enough to grab him and slam him against the wall of the superstructure; as Tarzan was still weak, infirm, suspicious, pessimistic and hurting after falling from such a height, he did not have enough strength to break free from the thugs' grip. When Tarzan sees Clayton, he begs for his help while trying to break free from them. However, Clayton reveals to him that he tricked him into leading them to the gorillas' nests, so that he and his pirates could capture them easily and sell them to a zoo in London.
After locking Tarzan in the ship's brig along with Jane, Archimedes, the captain, and his officers, Clayton and his pirates then take a loading boat through a river into the jungle and ambush the gorillas, netting them, forcing them into cages, and throwing the babies in burlap sacks. Tarzan's ape father named Kerchak intervenes to rescue his group, but is overpowered when the thugs restrain him with whips and a net.
Clayton slowly approaches Kerchak and prepares to kill him, preferring him to be stuffed before Tarzan, Jane, and Archimedes (who have escaped from the ship's brig with the help of Terk and Tantor) intervene and fight off Clayton and his group of dangerous pirates in order to free the gorillas and put the thugs in the cages that they used to confine the gorillas in. The thugs are not seen again after this, so it is unknown what has happened to them. However, it is likely that the captain and his officers put all of the thugs into the ship's brig as their custody and take them back to England so that they can await trial for their crimes (though it was never seen onscreen).
Personality
The Pirates are known to be treacherous, vituperative and short-tempered. They are basically hateful, murderous and destructive thugs who can capture Tarzan's ape family somewhere in the jungle. Despite their traitorous and violent nature, they can also be loyal and intelligent to Clayton, as they follow Clayton's orders and are able to pack up the luggage and supplies of Jane, Archimedes, and Cecil Clayton onto the ship to return home to London. However, they can also be fearful when they get chased by animals.
