Our Programs

The Earth Rangers live show will take you on a journey to explore the wonders of our natural world that you won’t soon forget. Prepare to be amazed as Cosmo the Ring-Tailed Lemur; Sammy, the African Serval cat, or Timber, our American Pine Martin suddenly take centre stage. Our Animal Ambassadors really are the stars of our show. They help us establish a powerful connection between the audience and the natural world and demonstrate how people can take action in their every day lives to make a positive impact on the environment.

Our live shows also feature stunning high definition video, taking the audience on a trip around the world to meet and celebrate some of the planet’s most amazing creatures. From Africa to Europe, to right in your own back yard, these creatures have an important story to tell about the diversity of life on earth, and how human impact is affecting their natural ability to survive in the wilds. So prepare to be inspired AND reminded that we all need to do our part right now to help Bring Back the Wild.

Currently, you can see an Earth Rangers Live Show at the Royal Ontario Museum, and at selected special events. See are upcoming events on the Earth Rangers’ calendar.

Bring Back the Wild™ (BBtW) is an integrated education and action program all about biodiversity.

The goal of BBtW is simple yet critical: To teach students about biodiversity loss in an engaging and interactive format and provide them with the tools to help animals at risk across Canada.

The program has 3 key components:

1) In school animal experience

Our dedicated team of Earth Rangers environmental educators uses the power of live animals in an assembly setting to connect children to the devastating effects of habitat degradation and loss on wild animals.

2) In-class activities and curriculum-linked teaching resources

Building off of the key messages delivered in the assembly show, Earth Rangers has developed age appropriate in-class activities to bring the learning into the classroom in a fun and engaging way.

3) Take action fundraising initiative

In collaboration with the Nature Conservancy of Canada, the Bring Back the Wild take action campaign is designed to give as many kids as possible the opportunity to help make a real difference in the crisis facing animals and their habitats.

The most unique and exciting aspect of our live show program is our animal ambassadors. Research has shown that this is one of most powerful ways to connect kids with environmental issues. When children meet our Animal Ambassadors and hear stories of the threats facing their species, it inspires them to take action. A bond develops between the children and animals that cannot be replicated by television or video.

Our Animal Ambassadors live permanently at the Earth Rangers Centre and are taken care of by our professionally trained Animal Care Team. We maintain a state of the art animal care facility that surpasses all CAZA and AZA standards. Each one is a vital member of the Earth Rangers family.

To house, feed and care for our 39 Animal Ambassadors requires both the dedication of their trainers and caretakers and the generosity of our supporters. To help us care for these amazing creatures, Earth Rangers is looking for (individuals) to assist us by adopting an Animal Ambassador.

By adopting one of our Animal Ambassadors, you will help Earth Rangers continue to provide them with the best available care. You will also ensure that these animals continue to teach and inspire children about the importance of protecting biodiversity.

Earth Rangers is a proud affiliate of the AZAaccredited Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Gardens.
