Love It!
This is the best podcast ever! I love it!
Free Education - Can't beat that!
I am the leader of a Girl Scout troop, and we are going to visit the Bronx Zoo. We can watch the podcasts before we go to become familiar with the exhibits, and learn a lot of information about the different animals - even the names given to them by their keepers...like Captain Perfection, the flamingo! These are great!
this is a cool podcast
