Gappa: The Triphibian Monster

An expedition from Tokyo heads to Obelisk Island, which the greedy Mr. Funazu, president of "Playmate Magazine", wants to turn it into a resort. Two members of the expedition venture into a forbidden area despite the pleas of a native boy named Saki. Saki is rescued by an American navy fleet and brought back to Japan. Meanwhile, back in Japan, the baby "bird-lizard" is making world headlines, and being experimented on by scientists.
