Doctor Freek Vonk is a passionate biologist who travels the globe in search of exotic wildlife and adventures in Freek’n Wild, a factual series for families on offer from Dutch Features Global Entertainment.

The show answers all kinds of animal-related questions such as where sloths live. Spooky features nine stand-alone episodes that tell creepy stories involving brave kids and the fears they must overcome.

“We would like to establish the brand of Freek’n Wild—the number one factual-adventure series in the Netherlands—and bring it to a much bigger international audience,” says Françoise Nieto-Fong, Dutch Features Global Entertainment’s sales executive.

The company’s slate also includes Penguins and Pastry, about an 8-year-old who wants to be a polar explorer, and his father, the world’s best pastry chef. Nieto-Fong calls the shows “perfect for international buyers and audiences.”

“These shows are all packed with imagination and fun; they’re highly original and very entertaining for families everywhere,” adds Nieto-Fong.
