What, exactly, does a zookeeper do? Animal Planet’s new show, The Zoo, takes viewers behind the exhibits, where zoo workers do everything from playing matchmaker for rare birds to helping vision-impaired gorillas navigate the world. The show was filmed over the course of eight months at the biggest metropolitan zoo in the U.S., the Bronx Zoo in New York City, which is home to more than 650 different animal species and the headquarters of the Wildlife Conservation Society.
