I love the behind the scenes of The Zoo!!! Crikey it's the Irwin's is kind of following suit but these guys did it first! There are so many different specialists for each animal and different problems that arise everyday. the members of The Bronx Zoo do an amazing job and problem solving and helping every member of the zoo from biggest to smallest as they work toward conservation of endangered species.

OMG, one of the best shows on television! I'm all about animal conservation, and this show is nothing like I've ever seen before! It certainly shows their commitment to animal conservation, and repopulating animal society. I hope this show is around for a long time to come. They will never run out of episodes is long as they have a zoo.

This is a great show for anyone to watch. It tells how,.zoos have gone from places to just look @ animals, too places that have brought back species, from total extinction. Zoos have become places of teaching & conservation. This show, lets you see how all the animals live, & how zoos of today are run. Its a facinating show. DarkBlueEyes.
