i saw that face before, but don't really know Wild kingdom.
but then again, I wasn't born in 1963 and I don't live in the US ;)

so I just googled some and yes! I did see a few episodes of this.
great series.

I was born a couple of years before that, but I saw them later on.  I always enjoyed Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom.  I still can remember MoO's jingle from then.

I remember Wild Kingdom from the 1970's. I was born in 1968, so don't remember the one you show here.

Exactly!  It was Sunday bath, climb into the PJs, then everybody huddled up on the couch to watch Wild Kingdom and Disney.  Only had 4 channels.  ABC, NBC, CBS and PBS.  Memories!

I seem ot remember Walter Cronkite and the 20th Century, Wild Kingdom and Disney.  Us kids were the remote control back then.  But you better not change channels unless you were told to!
