National Geographic Wild is celebrating ten years on the air, and it is setting up its programming for the 2020-21 season. The slate includes new episodes of Dr. Oakley: Yukon Vet, Dog: Impossible, and Secrets of the Zoo. In fact, fans of Secrets of the Zoo will see two different seasons of the series.
National Geographic Wild revealed more about the new seasons in a press release. Check out the details below.
“Secrets of the Zoo: North Carolina
Eight-part Series Premieres Fall 2020 (Double Act TV)
Welcome to North Carolina, home to one of the largest zoos in the world. Spread out over an enormous 2,600 acres, this AZA-accredited zoo has more than 1,000 individual animals, more than 200 species and a diverse range of landscapes, including a swamp, prairie, grasslands, forest and even a desert. Animals live in these lush natural environments and even share habitats as they would in the wild. At a time when the traditional concept of a zoo may seem out of sync with animal welfare, the North Carolina Zoo leads the way and has achieved multiple awards for its global conservation work. Secrets of the Zoo: North Carolina features stories of every kind, including emergency and routine animal procedures, animal husbandry and the rehabilitation and release of native wildlife.

Dr. Oakley, Yukon Vet Season 7
Ten-part Season Returns Spring 2021 (Lucky Dog Films)
Making house calls in the far reaches of the Great North is a daunting task in the least, considering the houses may be separated by hundreds of miles. That challenge doesn’t stop Dr. Michelle Oakley from performing her many duties as a veterinarian in one of the most rugged environments on Earth. In addition to running an animal clinic out of her home, she makes house calls, sometimes driving for long stretches through desolate wilderness to check on a patient. This series documents how Dr. Oakley juggles being a full-time vet, wife and mom, and does so with a sense of humor and devotion.”
Premiere dates were not revealed for these new seasons.
