The Animal Actors Show at Universal Studios Hollywood had its final show on January 8, 2023 after a 50 year run. We happened to be in the theme park to catch the final production, and it was way more emotional than we had anticipated. We weren't originally planning to release this as a public video, but we thought others might want to see it in full!

Thank you so much for all the positive words! I’ve been part of the Animal Show for 16 years now and I’m so blessed to have been part of a very important message that we were able to spread, and that is rescuing animals! ❤️Kim L

I'm surprised no one has talked about this yet, but seeing Kiwi be reluctant to finish her act just really tugged at the heart. It's almost like as if she knew that was her final time doing that trick. As someone with pet birds, I think it's easy for me to see that. I'm really gonna miss this show just as much as anyone else.

I definitely cried watching this. I remember seeing this for the first time as a little girl and asking my dad, “how do they know how to do that?!” 🥹 And my dad said “the animal trainers train them to do it”, and that made me want to be an animal trainer so bad …. I didn’t end up being one 😂 but I never forgot the experience because I thought it was just so cool. Thank you for sharing this♥️

The thing I’ll miss the most is a subtle one where if you stood on the overlook looking down upon Jurassic and the fire station you could here the barking dogs from animal actors when they were in between shows .

I went to this show in September and there were so many little glitches/animal derpy moments it was AMAZING. The lack of polish gave the show so much additional humor considering their humor brand is dad jokes for dogs. 5 stars edit: this was in Orlando, woops!

I really enjoy the variety on your channel. Hands down my favorite channel of the “theme park” KZfaqrs. But like I said, what makes your channel the best is all the different things you do. It gets harder and harder to watch some of the other channels ride the same rides and eat the same food over and over again. Its why I always look forward to your releases. Keep up the great work.

@@OrdinaryAdventures I was there for this last show too. We stayed after and asked that head trainer what would happen to the animals. He said not much. All these animals are owned by an animal talent group. They have multiple locations where they house the animals in California as well as across the country. They also supply animals for the Orlando Universal show. The dogs and cats mostly live with trainers while they do shows. But they'll all move on to other projects within their company. No animals were displaced or left homeless because of the show closure.

My entire family loved this show! Family/all ages shows like this along with family rides are not as flashy as extreme roller coasters but they are so important to overall all ages group enjoyment of theme parks. It’s nice to have activities everyone can do and won’t make you nauseous. This park is unique in being a real studio lot with history- I hope they try and retain that theming.

Thank you so much for sharing this show with us. I'm so sad I never made it to this show when I visited Universal once as a kid (Jaws was broken at the time too). I once volunteered at a show very much like this and got to handle birds and help train them as well as care for them, but it was birds only and was more education/conservation than this show. This show brought back so many great memories for me! We did the same thingy with the doves & the dollar bill trick with a Goffin's Cockatoo instead of a conure. I was surprised at how much of the show was the same as ours minus the mammals, wow. Thanks again, I really loved this!
