- A video about the reactions of animals at the Orana Wildlife Park to the 22 February 2011 earthquake. The video includes an interview with Nieka George, Primate Keeper, about the reaction of the spider monkey Jackie Chan, who had arrived from Wellington Zoo three days prior. It also includes an interview with Aaron Gilmore, Head Keeper of Exotic Mammals, about the reactions of the giraffes. Both species were initially alarmed by the earthquakes, but have got used to them quickly and have barely reacted to the aftershocks in the following weeks.
