'Animal Exploration' Host Jarod Miller Now at Aquarium of the Bay 364 Days
Each Year
TV Host and Zoologist Stars in the Aquarium's New In-House Video Program

SAN FRANCISCO, July 22 /PRNewswire/ -- Beginning today, Aquarium of the
Bay visitors have the opportunity to explore San Francisco's unique marine
nature center with the help of zoologist and television star Jarod Miller.
Miller, host of the nationally syndicated "Animal Exploration"
(http://www.animalexploration.com) and the new CBS reality show, "Greatest
American Dog" (http://www.cbs.com/primetime/greatest_american_dog/), is also
the star of the Aquarium's new five-part video guide.
    "I share similar animal conservation and environmental goals as Aquarium
of the Bay," Miller commented.  "I'm always excited about opportunities to
convey these important messages in all of my professional and personal
efforts.  Hosting the video guides is a great opportunity to spread the word
to the nearly 600,000 people who visit Aquarium of the Bay each year."
    "Teaming up with Jarod Miller to share the story of San Francisco Bay's
aquatic animals and Aquarium of the Bay's important conservation messages has
been a real win-win opportunity," said Aquarium of the Bay CEO John Frawley.
"We enjoyed working with Jarod last winter when he visited the Aquarium to
film a segment for 'Animal Exploration with Jarod Miller,' and are thrilled to
have him back as the host our new video guides."
    In addition to "Greatest American Dog," and "Animal Exploration," Jarod
co-hosts Animal Planet's "PetFinder"
(http://animal.discovery.com/tv/petfinder/petfinder.html).  He has also made
more than 100 appearances on programs including "The Tonight Show with Jay
Leno," "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" and "Live with Regis and Kelly."  He
hosts ecological segments for the Weather Channel's "Forecast Earth," and is a
frequent guest on "The Rachael Ray Show."
    During the five-part series displayed on large flat panel screens
throughout Aquarium of the Bay, Miller introduces visitors to the marine
nature center, discusses the sea-faring history of the Bay, describes some of
the 20,000 animals that guests come into contact with, and shares take-home
conservation tips.
