Desmond Morris is most famous for his work as a zoologist. He first came to attention in the 1960s as a presenter of ITV television's Zoo Time. His studies focus on animal and human behaviour, explained from a zoological point of view. He wrote The Naked Ape and Intimate Behaviour. He has also produced a number of television shows. His examination of humans from a bluntly zoological point of view has attracted controversy.
