The nostalgia runs deep.

Action Park, Jungle Habitat, Bowcraft and Bertrand Island closed years ago, but New Jersey residents still recall these amusement parks fondly.

For anyone who watched the Jungle Habitat episode of Hazardous History last night: yep, that was it. Cool to see the place pop up again after 50 years, but the segment itself was… kind of a snooze. They used stock footage from the Windsor Safari Park in Berkshire, England (likely in fear of getting some shade from Warner Brothers) which made it unauthentic. Of course, the Fonz suggested wild animals might still be roaming the mountains of West Milford which we know is just nonsense. The Action Park segment was the real highlight.

You can get your Jersey fix by watching Season 2, Episode 8 “Fatal Attraction” online or wherever you stream. Maybe some of you taped the episode on your VCR!

When it comes to odd zoo lore, this new film might prove to be the better option for your viewing pleasure:

The Catskill Game Farm was America's first ever private zoo, fostering beloved childhood memories for a generation before falling into disrepair and closing in 2006. Amongst the rubble, filmmakers discover reels of home movies which would expose a shocking new chapter of the zoo's history.

This fun reminder of a 🐪 ride came in from a Jersey gal who’s leaving the Garden state this month. Years of memories in her home, and she had the kindness to send this my way. Wishing more adventures ahead for our donor Lisa and her family.
Did you ride a camel at Jungle Habitat? More importantly- did you get spit on by the camel? I’ve heard from past riders that they were a bit prickly.

Sometimes when I’m sitting alone in the dark, I wonder where this sign is.

Jungle Habitat will be featured in an upcoming episode of Hazardous History with Henry Winkler on The History Channel.

We just signed the release for our content, so keep an eye out — West Milford’s most legendary wildlife adventure is heading to national TV.

Looks like Jungle Habitat is putting West Milford back on the map… again. This time with fewer baboons climbing on cars. I could make a good joke about Fonzie jumping the porpoise tank instead of a shark, but that would best be represented by someone with photoshop skills.
