Have a look at this post. I'm a newbie and so I didn't post this on the "Kruger 50s - 60s" board...

Hope you find it interesting!

Recently I noticed that many Wild Kingdom episodes have been uploaded on Youtube. Wild Kingdom was a wildife series aired in USA from 1963 to 1988 (and revived later). I found several episodes that have been filmed in Kruger (and other SA parks). For example, in the episode titled Hippo we watch a hippo capture operation taking place in Olifants.

Oh my goodness, what a blast from the past. :D

Fantastic footage and it felt like I was settling down to watch a news reel from my childhood. Can you imagine having a dressed chimp in the studio now a days. It would have every animal rights group up in arms. Fascinating :D

In the episode Guns that save wildlife we watch a couple of operations in private South African reserves, but also an innoculation against anthrax of Roan antelopes with a helicopter inside Kruger.
