Synopsis by Rose of Sharon Winter

This video is an episode from the acclaimed PBS kids' wildlife series starring Zoboo, a lemur from Madagascar. The unlikely and whimsical Zoboo appears in the flesh, in clay animation, in film animation, and as a puppet. Conceived to teach the preschool-age child about the wonders of wildlife, the show draws on the biology and zoology expertise of creators Chris and Martin Kratt. At Animal Junction, children meet Zooboo's animal friends -- colorful characters like Bugly, Noggendrill, Slimantha, Gooble, and Wiggy Waxwing, and learn how they get around in the world. Jackie, the young naturalist played by Samantha Tokacz, encourages children in ways to be friends to the earth's animal species.
