** We're not shown much personality aside from being a ferocious predator, but maybe Sabor is a lot like Shere Khan from the Jungle Book. Holding a humans are bastards mindset. Sabor killed Tarzan's parents (and tried to kill Tarzan himself) solely out of feeling threatened by human presence in the jungle. And European humans no less, who'd be more likely to hunt for sport.

** Sabor's body would definitely have to be moved somehow - her corpse, right by their nesting grounds, would be a draw for scavengers. The body was likely taken as far as possible from the nesting grounds and left somewhere. As for Kerchak, since gorillas actually do have "funerals", his body was likely given some ceremony, although whether it was buried is unknown.

** Unlikely - when Kala informs Kerchak about Tarzan's parents, she says "Sabor killed his family", rather than "a leopard killed his family". This implies that Sabor herself has a rather fearsome reputation.

** There are also hints that Sabor is an unusually large and aggressive leopard - even ''elephants'' are scared of her and she can almost kill a full-grown silverback gorilla. Kerchak was probably also uncertain that he could survive a fight against her, especially at night, where she'd have the advantage.

** The gorillas would presumably see no reason in burying Sabor. It seems as though they would've just left the body there, especially since they were trying to evade the sound of Clayton's gunshot. Nor do I know why they would've buried Kerchak -- yes, Tarzan might have been taught that humans are buried after they die, but that doesn't mean he would find it appropriate to do the same for Kerchak, who was a wild gorilla who distrusted humans and was ultimately killed by a human. And lastly, even if they did bury either or both of them, how are we supposed to tell where they did so? They're in the middle of the jungles of Africa; it's not as if there's any designated place for a cemetery.

** Even if the scenario you suggested were true, Sabor was still in between the baby and his parents -- there's no way Kerchak and Kala could've made it in time to save him, and Kerchak didn't want his mate (or himself, probably) to see their only son being brutally torn apart and eaten. As for avenging his son, Kerchak is also responsible for the safety of the other members of the gorilla troop -- you don't risk your life on a personal vendetta when you're the sole breadwinner for your family and they can't survive without you there.

** Probably the same reason [[Disney/TheLionKing Mufasa's]] body wasn't shown to be a smear of blood and entrails after he got trampled to death by a herd of wildebeest: you're not going to see explicit gore in a Disney cartoon. If you really need an in-universe explanation, then consider that Tarzan's parents were half-concealed underneath a tarp of some kind and only shown from the waist down; maybe Sabor just ate part of the upper body, then dragged the rest into some kind of cover to hide it, as cats are wont to do. Then, mostly sated, she prowled off somewhere for a little while, only to return and find a gorilla invading her larder and about to make off with the baby Sabor was saving for later...

** It depends on what Kala told him, I guess. Considering Kerchak's last words to him are "My son," I'm assuming he was in on the fact that Kerchak and Kala were mates and assumed that Kerchak was his biological father, but once he was confronted with the fact that he had another biological father, it was easy to disassociate from Kerchak because his aloof behavior prevented the chance for any attachment to form between them.
