Information About

Daktari




Dr. Tracy had to deal with lots of things like poachers, criminals and ignorant government people. Among the most beloved characters of the series were ''Clarence the cross-eyed Lion '' and ''Judy the Chimpanzee ''. The show ran from 1966 to 1969, much like Star Trek , but unlike the latter, ''Daktari'' did not become really famous. Today, ''Daktari'' could be considered as race-discriminating because the African population was mostly pictured as the inferior tribespeople.

The series is based upon the movie Clarence, The Cross-Eyed Lion (1965) by director Andrew Marton , whose cast also was headed by Marshall Thompson .
