Kids Love Zoo Shows
The Columbus Zoo and Aquarium has just announced they will sponsor “Jack Hanna’s Into the Wild” as one of their shows at the zoo. This celebrity zoo keeper will feature its animals, staff members and programs during a portion of each Emmy-Award-winning TV episode. In the past, he has featured Busch Gardens parks in Florida and Virginia. While he charges $1 million for the national endorsement, zoo officials say this boost in publicity will call attention to some of their endangered species programs. Of course, visitors don’t just have to sit at home to catch zoo shows, as they can come to the facilities for many great opportunities as well!
The Cincinnati Zoo has a few unique attractions and shows at the zoo that visitors love. For instance, how many zoos have an all-day-ride-pass that provides unlimited rides on a train, shuttle bus and carousel? Guests also flock to the state-of-the-art 4-D Special FX Theater, since Cincinnati is the first zoo to offer such an experience. According to the description, “You’ll see it. You’ll move with it. You’ll taste it and you’ll even smell it. Believe it or not, it will even touch you.” Currently, they have “Wild Earth Africa” playing, which includes footage of elephants, rhinos, giraffe, buffalo, zebra, cheetah and lions, combined with amazing special effects. Visitors can also watch “Planet Earth – From Pole to Pole” which watches great white sharks, seals, polar bears and penguins or “Extreme Log Ride 4-D,” which takes us to a dystopia in 2020 where humankind if on the brink of environmental disaster from Amazon habitat destruction. A 30 minute program by “The Backyardigans” and the “Wonderpets” during a special 4-D presentation of “Nick Jr at the Movies” is fun for both mom and dad.
Lastly, you may want to check out some of the interesting shows at the zoo in New Mexico. The Albuquerque Zoo offers year-round activities that include seal and sea lion feeding, polar bear feeding and a “Thunderbird Express” train ride. In the spring and summer months, you’ll be treated to lorikeet feeding and giraffe feeding as well. These warmer months will also let you touch an alpaca or a llama at 10 am and/or 1 pm. Or perhaps you’d rather take a camel ride, which runs (weather permitted) throughout the fall. Wearing special gloves, you can even touch a prickly porcupine. On Tuesdays and Saturdays during the spring and summer (11:30), you’ll be able to meet yellow-collared macaws and other tropical forest species. The “Animal Encounters Show” is Albuquerque’s most popular attraction, which will teach you about exotic animals from around the world that fly, crawl and climb.
