Clearly TV3 have noticed the lack of zoo shows in this time slot - a saviour at last! :D

I saw the trailer for this show yesterday, it looked good, but I had assumed it would be on in the afternoon, not the evening.
 
I hope the NZ series only returns after the Australian series finishes, as they both share the same timeslot.
 
First time I have seen Auckland Zoo on an international zoo TV show, usually the other way around. Nice!
 
The Zoo NZ returns 7pm on 25 November, TV ONE.
Unfortunately, this will collide with Wild Life at the Zoo.
At least both channels have +1!

Thanks for that driftaguy, hopefully I remember at the time! I haven't watched the Taronga show, has it been any good?
 
Season 13 of The Zoo Confirmed
TVNZ NEW SEASON 2013

TV ONE family viewing favourite -The Zoo is back for its 13th season!


Since The Zoo’s launch over a decade ago, the show has become an international hit, making the keepers and critters of New Zealand’s biggest zoo, Auckland Zoo, world-famous.



This year, get closer than ever before to the amazing wildlife and the caring keepers of Auckland Zoo. Specially-installed cameras capture exclusive footage from inside the animals’ dens once the keepers have left.



Witness close calls and lifesaving surgery as the vets of The Zoo keep a watchful eye over the creatures that call Auckland Zoo home.



And go beyond the zoo gates with keepers who exceed the call of duty, volunteering their time and expertise to various wildlife preservation projects around New Zealand.



See the cute antics and real danger of life at The Zoo.

I enjoy it, but if I had to I would choose The Zoo NZ.
However, the stories featured in WLATZ are more indepth, with usually only one story per episode (and in some cases, like the gorillas, two episodes per story).
 
wait what season of the zoo NZ is on tv now i have forgoten is it season 12 and season 13 will be next year?
 
Oh right well i heard that they were filming season 12 at the beginning of the year and thats the one that was on tv 1 and is coming back late november but i havnt heard ay thing that they have stared filming for season 13 or have they not stared yet.

From memory, I think season 11 had a limited type of release and wasn't available for the general public to purchase, as I remember it being a prize for FOTZ in one of the Zoo Alive magazines.
 
I have some disappointing news. The Zoo has not been recommissioned so there are no plans for a new series.

This was probably my favourite zoo show on TV while it was shown in Australia (not since around 2011) That news is such a shame :(
