After a hiatus of several months, WildEarth, the channel renowned for its immersive wildlife content, has made a triumphant return to DStv, following a renewed agreement with the MultiChoice Group. The channel resumed broadcasting on DStv channel 183 on December 1, a move celebrated by nature enthusiasts across the continent.
Charity Njanji, MultiChoice Zimbabwe’s head of corporate affairs and public relations, described WildEarth as “the biggest safari vehicle in the world,” showcasing unparalleled close-ups of Africa’s rich wildlife. “Feedback from viewers about the channel is positive, and after constructive discussions between the channel and MultiChoice, it has returned to DStv,” she said.
WildEarth’s mission is to bring nature into people’s homes, a goal it shares with MultiChoice. The channel’s return is particularly timely, coinciding with the December school holidays and festive season, offering families a chance to explore Africa’s wilderness from the comfort of their living rooms.
“Viewers feel they can go on a never-ending safari, exploring the beauty and thrills of the African wilderness without leaving their home,” Njanji added. The channel’s unscripted format and true-to-life wildlife encounters have been praised for their authenticity, offering audiences a raw, unfiltered experience of nature.
WildEarth’s appeal extends beyond nature lovers to a broader audience spectrum. Its content ranges from live safaris and up-close encounters with big cats to tranquil scenes of African landscapes. The channel’s programming also fosters environmental awareness, inspiring viewers to connect with and protect nature.
Available on all DStv packages, WildEarth ensures accessibility to a wide audience base. For those unfamiliar with the channel, its immersive offerings promise an engaging introduction to Africa’s diverse ecosystems.
The return of WildEarth underscores MultiChoice’s commitment to enhancing its content portfolio with educational and entertainment value. As families gear up for the holidays, the channel’s availability provides an enriching alternative to traditional entertainment.
With its comeback, WildEarth is poised to rekindle the excitement of experiencing the wild, reinforcing the notion that nature’s beauty and mystery are just a channel away.
