Secrets Of The Zoo Down Under is the latest edition to Nat Geo Wild’s popular Secrets Of The Zoo franchise.
This brand-new character driven documentary series gives viewers a ‘behind the scenes’ look at just what it takes to run one of the world’s most famous and magnificent zoos – Taronga Zoo.
For the keepers and vets that care for the more than 5000 animals at the park, this is no 9-5 job! In fact, for most of them, it’s a second home.
In this entertaining and compelling series, no area of the park’s 52 acres – set on the spectacular Sydney Harbour – is off limits.
Millions of visitors – from Australia and around the world – pass through the zoo’s gates every year to get a glimpse of some of the most amazing creatures on the planet. But what they don’t see is the incredible and ground-breaking work that goes on behind the animal exhibits. Until now! And there are plenty of stories to tell.
The series has also aired on Channel 4 in the UK and TVNZ in New Zealand, both under the title of Inside Taronga Zoo.
