"Leo the Wildlife Ranger"
Omens Studios has further expanded the "Leo the Wildlife Ranger" universe, launching brand-new VR and “It’s Hero Time!” series of shorts on YouTube this month. Based on the multi award-winning original "Leo the Wildlife Ranger" television series, the one-minute series of kid-safe VR experiences will take audiences on animated adventures from underwater in the Amazon River to watching a blue whale breaching in front of your eyes and a silver back gorilla enjoying its lunch.
