Wild Dubai, a new documentary from Discovery Channel, produced by UK-based Plimsoll Productions, will premiere in the Middle East exclusively on OSN in October.
The documentary reveals a range of unique animal species that are unique to this part of the world. Wild Dubai explores the vast often hidden wildlife of the emirate, as it journeys through the traditions of camel racing and falconry, reflecting the impact of heritage on the commitment to protect the wider environment and its wildlife.
Speaking about the documentary, Amanda Turnbull, Vice President & General Manager of Discovery Middle East and Africa said: Discovery Channel has long been committed to telling the stories of and shining a light on the people and places that make our planet extraordinary. This documentary will reveal a side to Dubai never seen before and reinforce Discoverys ongoing commitment to raise awareness about the ways in which we can protect and care for our wildlife and ecosystems.
Dr. Martha Holmes, Executive Producer at Plimsoll Productions commented that she had been surprised and delighted by the incredible diversity of life here and the variety of habitats.
Its been a real eye-opener and I want the audience to experience the same sense of wonder that I enjoyed while making the film.
Given the global appeal of the bustling city, Wild Dubai will also air internationally in several markets across Europe, Africa and Asia on Discoverys network of channels, following the Middle East premiere.
Emad Morcos, Chief Content Officer at OSN, added: Wild Dubai is the kind of programming that we get really excited about at OSN regional, informative and relevant. We are thrilled to premiere this insightful documentary across the Middle East. We believe in content that reflects the people and places of this region and Wild Dubai beautifully shows a side to the emirate that many residents and visitors have yet to uncover.
Wild Dubai will debut on Discovery Channel, exclusively on OSN channel 500. It will also be available on OSN Play and On Demand for catch up viewing.
