    Does anyone know if there is anywhere on the web i can find highlights of the series Bens Zoo that was on the bbc a few years ago about DZP. Or if anyone recorded it and has a copy, if i can borrow it that would be great as i never watched it and having just read the book i would love to see it.

    Oh I think I know what your talking about. I'm the other way around, I've watched the show but not read the book. Quite good, I didn't know there was a book TBH.
    uhm.....yea. I haven't got it recorded.
    It's from about 2007 isn't it?? or 06?

    Zoo series and book.

    The series has never been produced on DVD so it is unlikely that it will appear on the web. The chances of it ever being put on DVD is also unlikely due to particular parts of the copyright. The book can be bought at the zoo and compliments the tv series. It has now been produced in (i think i am correct!) 15 different languages and is a big seller.
    Dartmoor Zoo is now on facebook, Twitter and Bebo. Look for the DZP logo. Its full of up-coming events and future plans for the zoo.
