(CNN) Jim Fowler, who with his friend Marlin Perkins co-hosted "Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom," died Wednesday, according to the official website for the show. The website paid tribute to his decades of onscreen exploits that included feats like "hanging out of a helicopter, bluffing a herd of elephants or wrestling an anaconda." He and Perkins won four Emmys for "outstanding program achievement" in 1966, 1967, 1969 and 1970. Besides his role on "Wild Kingdom," Fowler logged more than 100 appearances on "The Tonight Show," first with Johnny Carson and then Jay Leno. He also made appearances on "Late Night" with Conan O'Brien, the website said.
