Magic of Disney’s Animal Kingdom

Kick off 2023 with “Magic of Disney’s Animal Kingdom,” which returns to National Geographic for a second season on January 1, 2023.


About the Series

The 10-episode docu-series showcases the vast array of animals in the park’s care, and the dedicated team of animal experts who manage the around-the-clock needs of the animals.

It’s not just a look behind-the-scenes at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, it’s a tribute to Disney’s dedication to conservation and the environment, as the series highlights the teams’ commitment to reducing their environmental footprint, caring for wildlife and their habitats, and creating experiences that inspire action.

These collective efforts are known as Disney Planet Possible, and throughout each episode viewers will learn more through pop-up facts and tangible actions they’ve taken to support a healthier home for people and wildlife.

Like the first season, this new season will explore the magic of nature within Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park, Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge, The Seas with Nemo & Friends at EPCOT, and Tri-Circle-D Ranch, which hold more than 300 species and 5,000-plus animals.

Filmed over five months, this series highlights the magic found with the animals, diving into the details of the parks, and one of the world’s most advanced animal health facilities.
