=Production
The series is set in most of Toronto, Canada. Deborah A. Forte and Bill Siegler are the executive producers of the series. The animals used in this series were supplied by the Bowmanville Zoo. Due to budget issues, the morphs of the characters from the books were changed and the others were omitted, with Jake having the white tiger morph, Tobias' morph being a Harris's hawk rather than a red-tailed hawk, and Rachel having the lion morph rather than an elephant and grizzly bear. Also, instead of Cassie, Marco has the wolf morph, rather than a gorilla.
