Bring Bronx Zoo To Your Living Room 将动物园带进卧室


There are a lot of misconceptions about what zoos and aquariums 2 are today in the 21st century.”


21世纪,人们对动物园和水族馆存在很多误解。


Jim Breheny, Director of the Bronx Zoo—and Executive Vice 3 President & General Director of the Wildlife Conservation Society’s Zoos and Aquarium 1. The Animal Planet channel recently spent eight months filming in the Bronx to create The Zoo, a series that began airing February 18th.


吉姆·布雷赫尼是布朗克斯动物园的负责人——也是国际野生生物保护学会中动物园和水族馆的执行副总裁和董事长。动物星球频道最近花了八个月时间来拍摄布朗克斯动物园,来制造《动物园》系列续集,这些视频将会在2月18日开播。


“We created this show with Animal Planet…to kind of pull the curtain back on what happens behind the scenes in a modern zoo. We wanted to invite Animal Planet and its viewers…to meet our animals, the meet the staff that cares for them and to see all the different skills, expertise 4 and passion, really, that these people bring to caring for our animals.


“我们和动物星球频道创办了这个的节目,….有点像在现代动物园幕后所发生的事情。我们想要邀请动物星球以及它的观众….来关注我们的动物,关注照看这些动物的员工,看看这些员工照看动物时所有不同的技能、专业技巧以及所展现的激情。”


“But more than that it goes one step further. What we do every day is relate the animals that we have in our zoos and aquariums and the exhibits that we have for people to see, we relate those animals in those exhibits to the conservation struggles going on with species in the wild. And we try to get people informed and involved, and to help us in our mission to save species around the world.”


但是从更深的层面来讲,我们每天所做的,是动物园、水族馆和展览馆的动物,让人们观看的动物,我们将这些动物和缺乏保护的野生动物联系起来。我们试图让人们知道并参与进来,帮助我们来一起拯救世界上生物物种。


Five episodes of The Zoo have already aired, with new episodes Saturdays at 10PM Eastern time. And to catch what you may have already missed, checked out the marathon Saturday, March 25th, starting at 11AM Eastern. Episodes are also archived on the Animal Planet website. Don’t forget.


现在《动物园》这一系列节目已经播出了5集,而新的一集将会在周六美国东部时间晚上10点播出。你可以看看之前已经错过的续集,还有将会在3月25日,美国东部时间上午11点开始播放的马拉松比赛。当然,《动物园》系列节目也会在动物星球的网站上。不要忘记观看哦~
