Animal Planet reveals the animal who is the nation's No. 1 animal mascot in a one-hour countdown special called Mascot Madness on Sunday, April 1, 2007, at 8 p.m. ET/PT.

Slated to air during the NCAA Basketball Tournament (i.e., "The Big Dance"), Mascot Madness is hosted by Animal Planet icon and animal expert Jeff Corwin and ESPN college football analyst Lee Corso as they count down America's favorite animal mascot (determined by fans who recently voted online). Joining Jeff and Lee in studio are some of the most iconic mascots in college sports, including Buzz the Georgia Tech Yellow Jacket; Testudo the Maryland Terrapin; Bucky the Wisconsin Badger; the Cincinnati Bearcat; the Horned Frog of Texas Christian University; and Peter the Anteater from UC-Irvine. Throughout the special and online at AnimalPlanet.com, viewers will get interesting facts and trivia about their favorite team mascot and animal species.
