Wild About Animals is the 18th album by popular children's entertainers Sharon, Lois & Bram, originally released in 1997. It featured the trio's very best songs about animals and is available on cassette and CD. This album was only released on the trio's own Elephant Records, after the trio dropped their previous U.S. distributor, Drive Entertainment. Hence, this product was only available in Canada. It was dubbed the trio's "musical tribute to fur, feathers, feelers and fins". ^[1]

Touring and promotions

This album, unlike other Sharon, Lois & Bram albums, was not highly publicized and therefore there was no tour or promotions for the album. The trio, however, did perform a 9-concert series performing songs from the album.

The trio performed three concerts on November 30, 1997 at the National Arts Centre in Ottawa, Ontario. They also performed six shows at the Hummingbird Centre in Toronto, Ontario on December 5–7, 1997. It was estimated that between the nine shows, approximately 25,000 people turned up. ^[2]
