History
The launch of the channel was used to help bring High dynamic range (HDR) content to Sky Q.[6]
When Love Nature was removed from Virgin Media in December 2020, most of its former content moved to Sky Nature.
Sky Nature launched an Irish feed on 8 April 2021.[7][8] The channel is registered with the broadcasting regulator in Luxembourg[9] however, the Luxembourg regulator will make use of the classification system set by Ireland's BAI Code of Program Standards. The channel is currently only available in standard definition.
On 1 July 2021 Fox closed and Sky Nature moved into its place on channel 124 on Sky.
Programming
Sky Nature currently broadcast a variety of nature series, both on the live TV feed and on demand:[10]
- Extreme Animals: One Wild Day
- Extreme Animals: Life’s First Steps
- Amazing Animal Friends
- Wild Tales from the Farm
- Shark with Steve Backshall[11]
- Monkey Life
- Gangs of Lemur Island
- Wild Israel
Branding
The logo consists of the Sky logo coloured green followed by the word "nature" on a green background. The logo originally consisted of a bunch of leaves forming the background where the "nature" text is. It was later changed green.
International version
On 1 July 2021 Sky Nature was launched in Italy, alongside Sky Documentaries, Sky Investigation (the local version of Sky Witness) and Sky Serie.
