    I don't think anyone has the dvd, as it was never released.

    Others in this thread said they got one dvd from some gift shops. So I was just wondering if they could get me a copy.

    They said they bought a dvd about Congo Gorilla Reserve, not the actual Ultimate Zoo show.

    If each of you would write a letter to the relevant t.v. channels , you may be pleasantly surprised.Sometimes these channels do actually pay attention and react when they receive positive letters.Remember, mostly they just receive complaints , so when they hear something nice , they sometimes react.And do make it a letter, not an e-mail, as it will be taken much more seriously.

    To my knowledge, only one show/film was made showing the development , construction and opening of Congo Gorilla Forest. I believe it has been shown on several stations under different names.

    Here is an excerpt:

    Here in the US, it used to be shown on The Discovery Channel every few months, but I haven't seen it for years

    Here in British Columbia, Canada, the entire 13-episode Ultimate Zoo series is now available for free via Shaw on Demand. I have already watched a couple of episodes, with a focus on the Congo Gorilla Forest development at Bronx Zoo, the Andean bear/coati habitat at Zurich Zoo and a highly detailed overview of the chimpanzee exhibit at Chicago's Lincoln Park Zoo.

    Does Shaw on Demand allow for the episodes to be downloaded? Are there any other websites that might have a complete/higher quality version of the Ultimate Zoo series?

    Here in Barrie I can watch it on demand for free using Rogers on Demand. The problem is that they only have around 8 or 9 episodes that you can watch. Ultimate zoo is a amazing TV series and is one of my favourite zoo-related shows.

    Ultimate Zoo fans rejoice!

    According to my research, Ultimate Zoo seems on Discovery Family (I don't know if it's available in other countries than the US) and that channel can be added on as part of an "entertainment add-on" for an additional US$7.99 a month as part of a Hulu/live TV subscription (US$64.99 with ads or US$70.99 without ads) I just got a Hulu/live tv subscription and got that entertainment add-on just so I can watch Ultimate Zoo. It's season 1, 13 episodes.

    I can't wait until someone rips it from a DVD to YouTube!
