Wildlife has long been a common subject for [[education]]al [[television show]]s. [[National Geographic Society]] specials appeared on [[CBS]] since 1965, later moving to [[American Broadcasting Company]] and then [[Public Broadcasting Service]]. In 1963, [[NBC]] debuted ''[[Wild Kingdom]],'' a popular program featuring zoologist [[Marlin Perkins]] as host. The [[BBC natural history unit]] in the [[United Kingdom]] was a similar pioneer, the first wildlife series LOOK presented by [[Sir Peter Scott]], was a studio-based show, with filmed inserts. [[David Attenborough]] first made his appearance in this series, which was followed by the series Zoo Quest during which he and cameraman Charles Lagus went to many exotic places looking for and filming elusive wildlife—notably the [[Komodo dragon]] in Indonesia and lemurs in Madagascar.<ref>{{cite web |title=Charles Lagus BSC |url=http://www.wildfilmhistory.org/person/222/222.html?personid=222 |url-status=usurped |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121113175714/http://www.wildfilmhistory.org/person/222/222.html?personid=222 |archive-date=13 November 2012 |access-date=14 July 2012 |website=Wild Film History}}</ref>
Since 1984, the [[Discovery Channel]] and its spinoff [[Animal Planet]] in the US have dominated the market for shows about wildlife on cable television, while on [[Public Broadcasting Service]] the NATURE strand made by WNET-13 in New York and NOVA by WGBH in Boston are notable. Wildlife television is now a multimillion-dollar industry with specialist documentary film-makers in many countries including UK, US, New Zealand, Australia, Austria, Germany, Japan, and Canada.{{citation needed|date=October 2019}}
There are many magazines and websites which cover wildlife including ''[[National Wildlife]]'', ''[[Birds & Blooms]]'', ''[[Birding (magazine)|Birding]]'', [[wildlife.net]], and ''[[Ranger Rick]]'' for children.
