Operation Rescue Part 1 | Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom

Originally aired September 14, 1969 When the Guri Dam was built on the Caroni River in the wilderness of eastern Venezuela, it created a huge lake that flooded 500 square miles of prime wildlife habitat. Marlin Perkins, Jim Fowler and Stan Brock help capture these stranded animals.
