Viewers feel closer to nature because they have bonded with the characters and want to know how their stories end. Love Nature\u2019s audiences will revel in the knowledge and expertise that Wendy Darke brings to this series, as one of the premiere talents in production and one of the most well-respected executives in the nature and wildlife space.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Darke said: \u201cWorking in partnership with Love Nature, while using the latest technology, scientific discoveries and storytelling techniques, has helped us realize new, premium factual creative ambitions within the popular animal soap opera genre.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are excited to introduce viewers around the world to <em>Gangs of Lemur Island<\/em>\u2019s charismatic cast of characters, including the ring-tailed lemurs and iconic dancing sifakas while sharing how they are surprisingly like us!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Love Nature, a joint venture with Blue Ant Media and Smithsonian Networks, is prepping the new series Gangs of Lemur Island with Bristol-based production company True to Nature.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":350,"featured_media":11762,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[512,1207],"class_list":["post-11761","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-love-nature","tag-true-to-nature","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
