Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. WILD AMERICA is targeted to children ages 13-16. The key educational objective of the program is to familiarize children with the animals of the North American content, their interaction with other animals and their environment. Throughout the series emphasis will be placed upon protecting endangered species and the impact that humans have while interacting in their environment. Each episode of the series will be specific to a particular animal. Topics will range from basic food gather, mating, natural enemies, relationships to other animals, and the interaction of the specific ecology on the survival of the species. We expect that children viewing the program will achieve a greater understanding of nature and specific animal species because of the up-close and detailed photography of the series. Through this understanding, it is hoped children will better relate to the natural environment as it exist in North American and learn to protect its natural species.

Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. WHAT COLOR IS YOUR DOG? is an educational/informational series especially geared to ages 13 - 16. In thisentertaining weekly half hour program, Joel Silverman, the well-known Hollywood animal trainer and author, demonstrates how to train dogs and cats with the help of his furry friends either in-home or on location. The visual instructions are an easy way to learn the art of training our four-legged family companions for this age group. Also, each week other animal trainers will talk about their experiences with dogs and cats - especially the specific training needed for a film, television program or commercial. We call this segment "Animal Actors." In the "Lessons with Luke" & "Lessons with Jax" segments, kids and puppies will team up together in this portion of the show. The kids will aid Joel in teaching a German Shepherd puppy (Lessons with Jax) or a Havanese puppy (Lessons with Luke) a new behavior each week. Our "Dog Training" segment dedicated to helping the young pet owner, in their home, to overcome their most troubling issue with their pet. Mr. Silverman demonstrates exactly what is required to eliminate the problem. This is helpful for any household who has a dog and wants to improve obedience. Many of these segments are filmed with untrained dogs from the Nevada Humane Society. Never heard of a trained cat? Well, Mr. Silverman knows how and will show the audience the art of training such an "untrainable" being in our "Cat Training" segment. In some segments, Mr. Silverman interviews Hollywood cat trainers with their cats, and much of what the viewers learn can be applied to the training of their cat. Other weekly segments include "Working Dog" and "Advanced Behavior" both entertaining and educational. The skills learned in each half hour is not only to improve training skills but will teach young people patience, kindness, responsibility, determination and understanding - all needed in life, as well. WHAT COLOR IS YOUR DOG? will display the "E/I" icon throughout the broadcast and is closed-captioned for the hearing impaired.000
