Happy 100th Birthday Sir David Attenborough

Sir David Attenborough celebrates his one hundredth birthday today. His career, spanning seven decades, has been transformative in the world of conservation and wildlife film-making. He continues to inspire current and future generations to take care of the natural world around them, a message that he highlighted this year in his most recent documentaries, Wild London and Secret Garden.
