Hearst Media Production Group, which last December acquired the library of  the Jack Hanna wildlife series, is launching a FAST channel on Pluto TV devoted to Hanna. 

The episodes can be streamed for free on FAST an ad-supported platform, according to media reports. 

The recent acquisition by Hearst Media Production Group, a distributor of wildlife content, included 400 episodes of The Wild Countdown and Into The Wild. 

“Wildlife programming, and Jack himself, are hugely popular with all audience demographics, and The Jack Hanna Channel has proven a powerful audience draw across platforms,” says Andrew Tew, senior VP, global licensing & distribution for Hearst Media Production Group.
