Jim Fowler, the khaki-clad naturalist who helped bring the wonders of the natural world to millions of viewers as a host of “Mutual of Omaha’s Wild Kingdom” — wrangling snakes and tigers in the bush and leaping from a helicopter to tag a moose in the wilderness — died May 8 at 89.

His family announced the death in a statement but did not immediately provide further information.

His nephew Rickie carries on the legacy, not by working as a zoologist, but taking care of birdies in his own way.
