“I think that it would be nice if people remembered me as a guy who loved all living things and did as much as he could to make ours a better world for animals — and also did quite a few television shows,” Barker said in 2007 when asked how he’d like to be remembered.

Born Robert William Barker in Darrington, Washington, on Dec. 12, 1923, Barker spent most of his childhood on the Rosebud Indian Reservation in Mission, South Dakota. He was a member of the Sioux tribe.

“I’ve always bragged about being part Indian, because they are a people to be proud of — and the Sioux were the greatest warriors of them all,” Barker said in 1962.

“They’ve been called the greatest light cavalry in the history of man. And I have never been on a horse without falling off.”
