The idea started last April when the </span><a href="http://www.jhitw.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-family:arial;"><em>Into the Wild</em></span></a><span style="font-family:arial;"> crew and I filmed in South Africa at two amazing reserves – </span><a href="http://www.shamwari.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-family:arial;">Shamwari</span></a><span style="font-family:arial;"> and </span><a href="http://www.sanbona.com/" target="_blank"><span style="font-family:arial;">Sanbona</span></a><span style="font-family:arial;">. </span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial;"></span></div><br /><div><span style="font-family:arial;">During one of our adventures my daughter, Suzanne, and I were able to attend the Mantis Field Guide Academy at Shamwari for a day. We had a blast and this experience gave me an idea – I should send someone who loves animals to Africa to experience this amazing program! So the “Wanna Be Like Jack Hanna” contest was born! For contest details, </span><a href="http://www.jackhanna.com/contest"><span style="font-family:arial;">click here.</span></a><span style="font-family:arial;"> If you love animals, live in the United States, and are over age 17, I encourage YOU to apply!</span></div><br /><div><span style="font-family:arial;"></span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial;">I’ve been very fortunate to have a job I love! During my travels, I have met so many people that passionately care about animals and wildlife and would give anything to turn that passion into a career. </span></div><br /><div><span style="font-family:arial;"></span></div><div><span style="font-family:arial;">I hope this contest will give a few deserving folks an opportunity of a lifetime!</span> </div>Jungle Jack Hannahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01549768503588799242noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7136273708936478766.post-46523622525742899652010-09-09T11:25:00.008-04:002010-09-09T13:05:01.522-04:00What a summer?!

I loved the loud sounds, fast cars, and the adrenaline rush! Nothing was better than coming home from the track with dirt caked all over my body (to my mother's dismay).</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Years later, after getting settled in Columbus, I decided to pursue racing as a hobby. I attended the Skip Barber Racing School at the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course and participated in 6 or 7 IMSA series races. Even though I almost always came in last, I still loved every minute of it. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">My amateur racing hobby came to a screeching halt after the Columbus 500. My car spun out right in front of the grandstand (which I thought was really cool). After the race, my father looked me right in the eye and said he'd disown me if I continued racing! He told me that I had a family and a zoo to take care of, and that I was by no means a skilled or professional driver, so I should stick to what I was good at! So that was the end of that, but I still love the sport.</span><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibfwORMPU1clYjsfzAvPuu_kl5UjQv8BefDcJ7l75myl725NHOCgwyx2eanVdeTOLrKa0q2fc2_0UACCKmFa1PaB7Jb_xzrEQj0cLEKxwfVe3FInBkqb8OzxO1UFEX9fUg6Huyo61Fs0s/s1600/old+racing.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5488659598465575410" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 269px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibfwORMPU1clYjsfzAvPuu_kl5UjQv8BefDcJ7l75myl725NHOCgwyx2eanVdeTOLrKa0q2fc2_0UACCKmFa1PaB7Jb_xzrEQj0cLEKxwfVe3FInBkqb8OzxO1UFEX9fUg6Huyo61Fs0s/s400/old+racing.jpg" border="0" /></a><span style="font-family:arial;"> </span><span style="font-family:arial;">When Nationwide Insurance asked me to attend the Nationwide NASCAR Series race in Sparta, KY, I jumped at the chance!</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Though I haven't raced in years, I still loved going to the track in Sparta. Here are a few of the photos - it was thrilling to meet the drivers and watch the race.

I saw the job listing and knew that Columbus had a good children’s hospital (important for my daughter Julie), so I submitted my resume. I can’t imagine what the search committee thought when I walked into the room - shaggy hair, big thick glasses, three young daughters, and a nice Tennessee twang. Most people would have thought “oh, brother” and asked to see the next candidate. But Blaine Sickles, a member of the Columbus Zoo Board of Trustees and </span><a href="http://www.nationwide.com/jackhanna"><span style="font-family:arial;">Nationwide Insurance</span></a><span style="font-family:arial;"> executive, had a good feeling about me. </span><br /><br /><div><div><div><span style="font-family:arial;">The Zoo Board had cold feet after my interview, but Blaine, normally a teddy bear of a guy, really let the board have it! He told the Board that I had met all the agreed upon criteria for the position and the search committee had worked very hard on finding a new director. And, he added, anyone who voted against me would be serving on the new search committee! Of course, I didn’t know this at the time, but fortunately for me, Blaine’s argument won them over and I started what would become a 30+ year career with the Columbus Zoo. </span></div><br /><div><span style="font-family:arial;">So I’m here today because one man advocated on my behalf. Little did I know how my life would change over the next thirty years and how important Nationwide Insurance would be to the Zoo’s history and future expansion. Nationwide Insurance supported the first exhibit I worked on as director – the American Bald Eagle habitat. They have supported nearly every major renovation or expansion since then, and most recently helped bring back the Polar Bears. I can’t wait until our new Polar Frontier region opens later this spring! </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Today, I’m proud to announce a new </span><a href="http://www.nationwide.com/jackhanna"><span style="font-family:arial;">partnership</span></a><span style="font-family:arial;"> with the organization partly responsible for bringing me to Columbus, Nationwide Insurance. Nationwide Insurance, my longtime partner in wildlife conservation, will be co-sponsoring </span><a href="http://www.blogger.com/www.jhitw.com"><span style="font-family:arial;">Jack Hanna’s Into the Wild </span></a><span style="font-family:arial;">with the Columbus Zoo, as well as my </span><a href="http://www.jackhanna.com/upcoming_appearances/upcomingappearances.html"><span style="font-family:arial;">national speaking tour</span></a><span style="font-family:arial;">. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">I’ve spent my whole career as an advocate for animals and conservation. My partnership with Nationwide Insurance is a natural fit because they are advocates too – for their customers, their hometown community, and their hometown zoo. With Nationwide’s help and support, we will be able to reach more people than ever before with the important conservation message, and hopefully inspire millions to learn about and take action to protect animals and our environment. </span></div><br /><div><span style="font-family:arial;">Thank you, Nationwide!</span></div><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5446289450718635666" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 180px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnRGC6i9_lUqHFAboopyZLMQKWPHft-MDZ9ZJxpYlKvi6QhyphenhyphenJNJIVLUh7cnRjYuB6BD7d1QMSyQuOWfxtlDEOQBDl-kY-ea70REWywGbw9yOdhGGh6LMavK55cy_hGQv6Lgt5fSh-OIZk/s320/Title_Screen.jpg" border="0" /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5446289379567334530" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 374px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 167px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJuDisRGfDk6uJtbXTvGJivDTa8MvrpnD3wbiI54xxt2DPDg7jW4dbjfq_UEGdO0jAFUfN3iH8VaA2o0JEgwTYIxH_4JlamAfa133RdtSBU7ucwvvRGXJ75sEj8Uflexzy-jGGVXKIN3w/s400/tourlogo.jpg" border="0" /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div><span style="font-family:Georgia;"></span></div></div></div>Jungle Jack Hannahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01549768503588799242noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7136273708936478766.post-88686008335762205142010-01-11T10:35:00.013-05:002010-01-11T13:58:45.387-05:00My New Year's Resolution<span style="font-family:arial;">With a new year, comes a new resolution - mine is to be a better blogger! </span><span style="font-family:arial;">December was definitely a WILD month.

Here are some photos of me and my family on a gorilla trek yesterday where we saw a huge silverback, a mother with her two month old, a young fella having his lunch, and some more. Today we're dedicating a new Community Center in Gisenyi that serves homeless children, handicapped and otherwise challenged young people.

The Columbus Zoo is involved with several elephant conservation projects in Sumatra.<br /><br /><strong>Sattva</strong> - (SUHT-vah) – Translated from Sanskrit, this name means “purity” or “existence.” In Hindu, individuals who are sattvic are believed to have a good memory supporting an old adage that an elephant never forgets. When you combine the name Sattva with that of his brother, Bodhi, you get Bodhisattva. In Mahayana Buddhism, a Bodhisattva is someone that uses his/her wisdom to bring others to enlightenment.<br /><br /><strong>Siddhartha</strong> – (si-DAHR-tuh) – Translated from Sanskrit, this name means “fulfillment”. “Sid” may be used for short.</span> </div><div><br /><a href="http://www.columbuszoo.org/conservation/namethebabyelephantcontest.aspx"><span style="font-family:arial;">Click here to vote </span></a><span style="font-family:arial;">for your favorite!
