Tampa Bay Times - ZooTampa Featured on National Geographic Series Airing NowThe zoo is getting a national audience this month, giving Tampa a reality series that doesn’t involve drunken partiers. The third season of the Nat Geo Wild show Secrets of the Zoo features ZooTampa at Lowry Park. The first of the six episodes aired Jan. 5, and the season was filmed entirely at the zoo to share behind-the-scenes stories of the animals and the team entrusted with their care. From a koala joey to a rescued manatee, “the series features an array of compelling stories that highlight the zoo’s mission to protect and preserve animals and build a legion of wildlife champions," ZooTampa said in a news release.
