He has presented many, many films about animals and climate change, the first in 1954 called Zoo Quest, which involved filming animals in captivity and the wild and launched him as a TV presenter. And he has carried on for several decades. I'm sure if you've seen any you'll have your favourite. I think mine was one he did with gorillas in the jungle, cavorting around as one of them.
I've been looking him up and honestly I couldn't do him proud on my humble blog, to list his achievements, there are so many, so I'll leave it up to you to research yourself, should you wish.
All I want to say is, even though he is this brilliant man, those who know him say he is kind, considerate and loyal.
So a thoroughly nice man.
Anyone who treats animals like he does, is more than just nice in my opinion.
Happy Birthday Sir David Attenborough!

I have watched and enjoyed several of his programs that have aired on TV. Happy 99th birthday!
I think the term 'national treasure' is over-used, but Sir David Attenborough really is one.
He and his brother Richard have given generously to their old school in Leicester - now a 6th form college- and my daughters both benefitted from their time there. So much quiet goodness from this lovely man
A man of many talents, and unique.
He has led so many PBS nature shows over the decades. He's a very well spoken man and we wish him a Happy 99th.
Happy Birthday to David Attenborough and a big thank you to him for helping us understand the world around us a little better through the creatures and places he has shared with us.
I had no idea that he was that old. I too have enjoy a few of his many works.
I didn't realize he was that old. An amazing man.
Happy 99th Birthday to Sir David Attenborough
All the best Jan
He has enriched this world through his work. And what a gentleman...and gentle man.
