"Mutual of Omaha’s Wild Kingdom" played a critical role in changing public attitudes about animals, including the wolf. In our featured episode, “Wolf Pack,” host Marlin Perkins explains how the notion of a “big bad wolf” is a myth. In reality, wolves are an important part of our ecosystem and actively avoid humans. Separating fact from fiction is one of the ways that “Wild Kingdom” taught millions of viewers about our natural world. The legacy of conservation education continues today with updated introductions to the classic episodes on RFD-TV, new content on social media and digital channels and special appearances with the show’s current host, Peter Gros.
