| Summary |
*Handling wild animals can be dangerous. Do not try this without the help of experts*Meet Chris Humfrey, a zoologist who lives with his young family and their REALLY big dog in an idyllic bush haven in country Victoria. But the Humfreys also share their home with a few other pets more than 2000 and each one of them needs care and attention 24/7. This isn't your average family home. It's a private zoo where human and animal sagas unfold on a daily basis. Follow Chris in this chaotic, animal crazy series that captures the drama, the danger, the animal antics and the sheer exhilaration of Chris Humfrey's Wild Life. Every day, a new saga unfolds at the zoo. This week at the zoo Chris is suffering from eye troubles attributed to stress, so following doctor's orders, heads to the Western McDonnell Ranges, in central Australia, for a week's break. But if Nicole and the kids were expecting a relaxing vacation, they're going to be disappointed. Chris, unable to sit still, ends up tangling with some of Australia's most dangerous creatures. Meanwhile, back at the zoo, the staff cope with looking after the 2000 animals and 10 children who arrive for Junior Zoo Keeper Day. Needless to say, managing children and dangerous animals can be tricky.PRODUCTION DETAILSA December Films Production for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation and ITV Studios Global Entertainment (c) December Films and Film Victoria |
