Where to Watch Zoo

Zoo is now streaming on Angel, bringing audiences a heartfelt, family-friendly story inspired by true events during World War II. Set in 1941 Belfast, Northern Ireland, the film follows 12-year-old Tom Hall, the son of the local zoo’s veterinarian, as German air raids threaten both the city and the animals.

When a baby elephant named Buster arrives at the zoo, officials fear the animal could become a danger during the bombings. Faced with the possibility that Buster may be put down, Tom teams up with his friends to secretly protect and hide the elephant. What begins as a daring mission quickly becomes a test of bravery as air raids and a police investigation bring danger.

Zoo holds an 88% critics score on Rotten Tomatoes and has been praised for its thoughtful storytelling and emotional impact. Viewers call it “a sweet story for kids and kids at heart” and celebrate how it naturally explores empathy, courage, and doing what’s right—even when it isn’t easy.
