Since joining Instagram24 hours ago, Attenborough has racked up 2.7 million followers. His first ever post gained a whopping 10,257,883 views. Pretty impressive tbh.
The veteran broadcaster joined the social media platform for a really important reason, too. "This is my first time on Instagram," Attenborough said in his first ever Insta video. "And I'm making this move and exploring this new way of communication to me, because as we all know, the world is in trouble. Continents are on fire. Glaciers are melting. Coral reefs are dying. Fish are disappearing from our oceans. The list goes on and on and on."
