Created by Martin Kratt, Chris Kratt, and Leo Eaton. It is still currently shown in syndication (depending on the area) and was regularly shown on Sprout until 2011. A total of 65 episodes were aired. Creation of the Kratt brothers (Chris and Martin), it features a talking Coquerel's sifaka named Zoboomafoo (voiced by Ottawa-born puppeteer Gord Robertson and mainly portrayed by Jovian) and a collection of repeat animal guests. Every episode begins with the Kratt brothers in Animal Junction, a peculiar place in which the rules of nature change, and wild animals come to visit and play. After November 12, 2004, the series was pulled from its weekday airing on most PBS stations, though some continue to air it.
