Today, May 8, one of the world's most famous naturalist presenters – Sir David Frederick Attenborough – celebrates his birthday. He is 98 years old. David Attenborough is considered by many to be the pioneer of nature documentaries. He was the host and main creator of ten famous documentary series about nature, which tell in detail about all kinds of life on earth and about their interaction. It is difficult to overestimate the contribution of David Attenborough to the cause of environmental education and protection of living nature, which he made the goal of his life. In 1985, he was knighted.
