One of the largest and most popular zoos in the U.S., Ohio's renowned Columbus Zoo and Aquarium and its conservation park The Wilds, houses more than 10,000 animals on 12,000 acres. It's also the part-time home of beloved wildlife guru Jack Hanna, the zoo's director emeritus. Nat Geo Wild is taking viewers inside the grounds and allowing them to experience what visitors can't: compelling, heartwarming stories, and behind-the-scenes moments and adventures. "Secrets of the Zoo" introduces both the animals and the legions of workers who create unforgettable connections between people and wildlife.

08/23/2021 Decent show. No heavy voice overs staying stupid stuff like on many similar shows. It's the staff giving their knowledge. They also seem to really care for all the animals. If I was an animal then forget cruel nature, I'd be climbing the walls to get in here. See more Read all reviews
