National Geographic has launched a new documentary series titled “Africa Earth’s Wild Home,” a seven‑part exploration that marks the opening installment of a multi‑year franchise aimed at documenting each continent of the planet.
The series was a four‑year undertaking that employed more than 50 crew members, reflecting the network’s continued commitment to large‑scale, high‑budget documentary production.
Unlike many media companies owned by large conglomerates, National Geographic is still allocating significant resources to nonfiction storytelling, a strategy the outlet has pursued to maintain its reputation for in‑depth natural‑history programming.
“Africa Earth’s Wild Home” serves as the first chapter in a planned sequence that will move from Africa to other continents, offering viewers a comprehensive look at the world’s diverse ecosystems.
National Geographic partnered with additional collaborators to bring the series to fruition, though specific details of those partnerships have not been disclosed.
