A six-year-old boy from Pembrokeshire has put pen to paper to mark Sir David Attenborough's milestone 100th birthday, by drawing 100 of his favourite animals. <br />Max Evans-Browning from Neyland, carefully selected and hand drew 99 of the broadcasting legend’s favourite animals, for every year of his life.<br />To complete the collection, Max has now drawn a platysaurus attenboroughi, also known as Attenborough's flat lizard, which was named after the renowned biologist.<br />Sir David is not just a national treasure, but a global icon, who celebrates his 100th birthday on May 8.<br />Max has been a fan of Sir David for as long as he can remember, who would watch his documentaries every night before bed as a toddler.<br />"When I saw last year he was going to be 99, I said 'why don't we do 99 for him?' And then we did it and it went everywhere and then finally got to him and a message came back," said Max. <br />"So this year, because he's 100, I wanted to add one more on."<br />The 100th drawing took Max "all night" - his mum Samantha said.<br />The drawings sketched for Attenborough's 99th birthday last year spanned across eight A3 sheets of paper and took Max four days to complete.<br />Global recognition of Max's adoration began when his mum posted his drawings on Facebook. The post attracted hundreds of shares and caught the attention of Sir David himself.<br />Samantha said Max has watched all of Sir David's documentaries and owns more animal encyclopedias than she can keep track of!<br />With the pair still on cloud nine after receiving a hand-written letter from Sir David's previous birthday, Max has written another for his 100th, signing it off with a safety warning, stating: "I hope you have the best birthday and be careful blowing out 100 candles on your cake."<br />©BBC Wales<br />
