Whatsa,
You might not be aware that Marlin cut his zoological teeth at the Buffalo zoo in the 40s/50s. I too, loved "Wild Kingdom" and still laugh wiith friends recalling Marlin as the shot pulled back "while Jim wrestles the Anaconda (and goes down for the third time) this would be a great time to tell you about Mutual of Omaha's accident coverage"
Jim out in the field getting mauled while Marlin was in the studio with that world map they used.......
Still, anyone who willingly steps in with salties is of questionable sanity!
