Happy Birthday Marlin Perkins
Transcript:
Today, we celebrate the birthday of Marlin Perkins, an icon in wildlife television programming. Every Sunday evening, Marlin would entertain and educate us as the host of Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom. Families would gather around their televisions with great expectations of Marlin's worldwide adventures. He opened our eyes and minds to the wonders of the natural world and remote locations around the world. Marlin's conservation message greatly inspired me and influenced my career in wildlife education. For that I say, "Thank you, Mr. Perkins." I will continue the legacy you started with Mutual of Omaha, spreading the message of preserving our natural world and the lands in which they live.
