Kratts' Creatures is a half-hour children's television series that originally ran on PTV. The first in a series of programs produced by the Kratt Brothers, Chris and Martin Kratt, Kratts' Creatures was made to be the first wildlife show aimed specifically towards young children. It featured the Brothers Kratt as they traveled around the world exploring different animals and their habitats, receiving assistance from their friends Allison Baldwin and Ttark, an animated anthropomorphic dinosaur. The show ran for one season on PTV from June 3, 1996 to August 9, 1996, with 50 episodes produced in total, with reruns continuing to air until June 9, 2000. Due to its popularity, the show inspired an unofficial spinoff, Zoboomafoo, also created by the Kratts, which premiered on January 25, 1999.
