Dream of dancing with wolves, running with the bulls or flying with the eagles. From cheetahs to chimpanzees, from snakes to snails, from baboons to bears, Animal Exploration with Jarod Miller brings viewers up close and personal with the most fascinating members of the animal kingdom. Exciting, surprising, and fun, Animal Exploration entertains, informs and inspires viewers as Jarod interacts with creatures in unexpected ways. Jarod's unique perspective on creatures large and small is seen in episodes such as Need for Speed in which viewers learn about the fastpaced lives of the animals one might expect, like cheetahs, but also about the world's fastest butterfly, the fastest striking snake, and a bird that bears a striking and deadly resemblance to the velociraptor. In other episodes, Animal Exploration will explore Camo, Ammo and Other Amazing Skills, about the fantastic adaptations various species have made to enhance their chances of survival, while Family Ties reveals the strangely human habits many animals share with us. Other upcoming shows include Creepy Critters about animals whose strange and spooky characteristics help them survive, as well as Animals in the Extreme which features animals that thrive in unbelievable conditions. Each week's show features a "Did You Know?" segment, enabling viewers to take away something from the show that they can use in their own backyards. Come along with Jarod to the nearest and farthest corners of the globe as well as to your local zoo, as he explores the human/animal interaction in the face of an ever-changing world. |
