David Attenborough turned 100 on Friday, with Google unveiling a special wildlife-themed Easter egg and custom Doodle to honour his legacy. Users searching his name are greeted with a “Thank You, Sir David” message surrounded by animated animals inspired by his iconic documentaries, including penguins, gorillas and blue whales wearing party hats and carrying gifts. YouTube also marked the occasion by showcasing the most-viewed BBC Earth videos narrated by him. Attenborough, born in 1926, has spent decades transforming wildlife filmmaking through landmark series including Planet Earth, Blue Planet and Life on Earth.
