With all of the brilliant wildlife programmes on TV at the moment we thought it would be a great time to run a poll on who is everyones favourite wildlife presenter! The options below are eleven of the regulars that have appeared recently on our screens.
We know there are lots more out there that we could have included, feel free to sing their praises as well!
Please keep the comments positive and feel free to vote on whatever criteria you see fit, be it knowledge of poo, how they look as nature intended (for the Iolo fans out there!) or simply on their enthusiasm for wildlife!

Very difficult to choose, could really have chosen at least 5 straight the way.
But have gone for Sir David Attenborough, a life times work always thoroughly enjoyed by me.
Well, my vote has to be for Sir David. He's probably done more to raise the awarenes of wildlife amongst the general public than anyone living today. This coupled with his charm and easy manner has endeared him to millions. And what a trouper he is ; over 80 and still going strong.
Simon King would be my second choice. He's done it all - cameraman, presenter and naturalist. He imparts information in a way that's educational without being in any way patronising.

There can only be one person who has done more in bringing attention to Wildlife than anyone else in the World and that is David Attenborough!! Long may he reign..
No contest - Sir David Attenborough every time !
I have voted for Bill Oddie as he comes from Lankysher and is very funny but its hard they all have there own qualities like Simon King and can I put a word in for part time wild life presenter and full time Comedian Bill Bailey He loves this subject and helps not just fashionable creatures but aids creatures like snakes etc

I have voted for Iolo Williams. I like his straightforward no frills style. It was a close thing as I also like Simon King.
Cheers

Let not your heart be troubled
Sir David Attenborough has done so much to enthuse us all down the years, he has to get my vote!
Have to say my prize for "Most Improved Wildlife Presenter 2010" has to go to Martin Hughes-Games of "Autumnwatch Unsprung" alongside Chris Packham and Kate Humble.
Also can't praise "Halcyon River Diaries" with Charlie Hamilton James, his adorable sons and wife Philippa enough. That programme on its own was worth the license fee!
Honourable mention to "Birds Britannia", too!
I just ADORE Chris Packham.. my kind of humour.. Ryan Hare at the Hareport etc plus he makes reference to several of my fav bands the Smiths included I love his 'thigh rubbing' excitement and just love Itchy and Scratchy with 'The clue is in the pooh' Brilliant. Also love Simon King but have to say Chris first and foremost. :)
