See animals behind-the-scenes in their habitats and watch zookeepers care for them. Discover why Zebras have stripes & why flamingoes are pink! Learn about the food chain and endangered species. Experience feeding day at the Reptile House, a visit to the Zoo Hospital and the nation's #1 interactive Children's Zoo! For KIDS 3-10 (and their parents!) Running Time: Approx 50 minutes "The Big Zoo" contains an interesting mix of elements for audiences of all ages. For the preschool set, shots of sheep grazing are shown while a child narrator asks, "Do you recognize these animals?" "And do you know what they say?" For slightly older, literate viewers, the animal's names are highlighted in bright, splashy colors with animation. An even older crowd is targeted with zookeeper interviews, and technical terms (like "protective coloration"). Warning: Because this video contains one graphic scene of a blood python eating a rat, it is problematic, and not recommended for kids under 7 or 8 to watch on their own. Unfortunately, the rest of the tape is targeted to kids 3-8. (From Children's Video Report ) The BIG Adventure SeriesĀ® has received dozens of awards and citations from such organizations as Parent's Choice, Kids First!, Video Librarian, CINE, and International Monitor Awards."The Big Zoo" contains an interesting mix of elements for audiences of all ages.
