Spring into adventure with these specials from Wild Kratts airing on WITFK PBS Kids 24/7 in April:

Wild Kratts: Back in Creature Time – April 9-11 at 7:00pm:

The Wild Kratts crew lament the extinction of different animals in recent history and how they’ll never ever be able to see them. Aviva decides that it’s finally time to unveil her most secret invention yet — the Time Trampoline! Using the trampoline, the Wild Kratts jump back in time to meet the extinct species. Science Concept: Extinction — different types of animals can go extinct and disappear from the planet in a number of ways — habitat loss, overhunting, etc. Once an animal goes extinct, it is lost forever.

Wild Kratts Amazin’ Amazon Adventure – April 23-25 at 7:00pm:

When Aviva experiences an invention slump, the Wild Kratts team is determined to help. They take her down the mysterious Amazon River in search of inspiration from the amazing creatures that live there. But Aviva must reclaim her invention prowess fast, because Zach, Donita, Gourmand, and Paisley seek to mine the area’s biodiversity for their own nefarious schemes.

These specials will also air additional times on WITFK PBS Kids 24/7. Find show times via our TV schedule.
