Behind the Scenes—Live & Interactive!

When the Zoo closed to the public—due to the COVID-19 pandemic—Oakland Zoo offered subscriptions to Behind the Scenes, a daily 20-minute interactive live program featuring animals, keepers, and questions from viewers. Our final broadcast aired on June 10, 2020. Now, we're excited to make the entire library of episodes available to you, free of charge. Enjoy Behind the Scenes Live at Oakland Zoo!

Special thanks to our subscribers—your participation made a difference!
