Ivan Tors' amazing animal drama, Daktari, proved an instant family classic and followed up its successful mid-season run with a full sophomore season of 28 action-and-appeal-packed adventures. Known to the locals as Daktari (Swahili for Doctor), Dr. Marsh Tracy (Marshall Thompson) runs the Wameru Study Center for Animal Behavior, a game preserve dedicated to the study and preservation of the African velt's abundant - and sometimes deadly! - life. Aiding Dr. Tracy in his mission are daughter Paula (Cheryl Miller), assistants Mike Makula (Hari Rhodes) and Jack Dane (Yale Summers), and prized pair of scene-stealers, Clarence the Cross-Eyed Lion and Judy the Chimp. Between poachers, bandits and deadly predators, the staff of Wameru has their hands full, so it's a good thing they get plenty of animal assistance! |
