What Parents Need to Know
About Jack Hanna's Into the Wild
Parents need to know that while this live-action nature series is mostly tame enough for animal lovers of all ages, it does discuss human predation, which has driven some species to the brink of extinction. Some episodes include evidence of said predation; in one, several stuffed antelope heads (all hunting trophies) were shown on the walls of a lodge.
