A History with Critters

It was at 11 years of age that Hanna discovered his passion. Cleaning out cages at his local zoo in his native state of Tennessee, little did America's most famous zoo keeper know that the work on the number two’s was going to take him so far. Fast forward to today and now his passion for animals, their education and conservation has taken him around the world and develop a TV career delivering his message to millions weekly around the world. It was in 1985 that David Letterman first invited him on set, which opened up the door for a TV series of his own- Zoo Life with Jack Hanna and than into Animal Adventures (now in cydication with re-runs running seen in 40 countries). It’s his latest work he’s now most proud of with, Spectrum Production’s Into the Wild winner of a Emmy for Outstanding Children’s Series (2008).

The purpose of his time in Alberta was for him and his crew to shoot three episodes for upcoming episodes of Into the Wild
