## Description

An orphaned baby elephant? A lion with a brain tumor? Call Dr. Marsh Tracy! This lovingly remembered show from executive producer Ivan Tors (Sea Hunt, Flipper, Gentle Ben) stars Marshall Thompson as a dedicated veterinarian who runs an animal research center in Africa with the help of his daughter, two courageous aides, a mischievous chimp and a cross-eyed lion named Clarence. Action, laughs and breathtaking encounters with exotic animals highlight the 18 Episodes of the Complete Season One as Tracy and his crew handle everything from poachers to diamond thieves to a raging fire that threatens the nearby game preserve. "Daktari" means "doctor" in Swahili, but for viewers it means uplifting family fun!

Review: Great show! - If you're an animal lover you're going to love this! First season is good but the 2nd and 3rd are even better. The Wameru family are so beautiful and entertaining, you won't be disappointed. I can't get enough of this program. I only wish it had continued longer.
Review: The Doctor is in .......... Africa - I bought this DVD purely for nostalgic purposes.I remember seeing this series as a kid and wanted to see if it was as good as I remember.It is.There is hardly any violence here but plenty of adventure.This is a family show. Marshall Thompson is perfect as Dr Marsh Tracey.I read that he was interested and cared about wildlife.His sincere performance in this show shines through.He would be more involved in the production of season 2 and I have read that the show gets even better.He was actually bitten by one of the animals in the second season and needed stitches while the animal was sedated.This was kept in when the episode was aired.The only other person I know who sincerity shines through in his performance was Fess Parker in his own series "Daniel Boone" While I was a kid,for me it was all about the adventures.But now,I have come to appreciate more the hi-jinks of the chimp called Judy.She steals every scene she is in. There is plenty of action and adventure in these stories ranging from poachers,jewel robbers,escaped prisoners to forest fires as well as trying to save the endangered wildlife. As this is a family show,you can watch this with your kids or grandchildren.I'm sure they will enjoy it too.
