Animal Planet Expo 2007 June 16, 2007

ANIMAL LOVERS OF ALL AGES GO WILD FOR ANIMAL PLANET EXPO!

Animal Planet, Bright House Networks and the makers of Fresh Step® litter, invite Tampa Bay residents to bring their families—and their “fur” children—to celebrate the wonder of wildlife, the companionship of pets and the important role animals play on this planet during ANIMAL PLANET EXPO. This free, family-friendly event is jam-packed with interactive exhibits, games, activities and live animal demonstrations.

Some pavilions where visitors have a dog-gone good time include:

• R.O.A.R. Stage – Boasting a brand-new 16’x19’ LCD video screen, the R.O.A.R. Stage captivates and delights visitors, featuring a feast for the eyes, ears and tails with high-flying Frisbee dog shows, interactive trivia games, and awe-inspiring live animal presentations with exotic animals like a python, an alligator, a kinkajou, a porcupine or a lemur.

• Pet Den – The makers of Fresh Step® litter, the ASPCA®, the Humane Society of Tampa Bay and local vet Dr. Lila Miller will be on-hand to provide pet adoption opportunities and answer any pet care related questions during one-on-one “Ask the Vet” sessions.

• Discovery Kids’ Endurance Experience – A hands-on adventure that lets kids experience the mental and physical competition of Discovery Kids Channel’s wildly popular series ENDURANCE: HIGH SIERRAS via grueling simulated challenges and tests of wit, including a gargantuan climbing wall.

• Discovery HD Theater Dome – See firsthand the breathtaking clarity of high-definition programming from Discovery HD Theater, such as the groundbreaking series PLANET EARTH and DISCOVERY ATLAS HD. Also enter for a chance to win an HD television set.

And much, much more!
