About Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom

Mutual of Omaha has a long-standing commitment to conservation that dates back more than 40 years. We believe there is a correlation between protecting the world's natural resources and our business of protecting a family's resources. Both require planning, care and professional guidance.

Our commitment to environmental conservation began with the program Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom, which premiered on NBC on January 6, 1963. Today, co-hosts of the original Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom, Jim Fowler and Peter Gros, help heighten awareness about environmental issues through numerous appearances across the country on behalf of the company.

This heritage continues with all-new episodes of Wild Kingdom being broadcast on Animal Planet. Fowler and Gros are special advisors to the program.

In 2002, Mutual of Omaha answered a new call of the wild and launched a national effort designed to challenge a younger generation to think creatively about the natural world. Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom Kids' Summit encouraged kids, aged 9-12, to submit an essay identifying ways they can help an endangered species in their region. One winner from each state was selected to attend the Wild Kingdom Kids' Summit, the first of which was held in Los Angeles in May 2002.
