How today’s schedule usually runs
Mornings favour easy to join short episodes and keeper diaries. Daytime moves into habitat and behaviour stories, plus vet and rescue strands. Early evening builds context with returning series. Prime time leans into cinematic predator hours, landmark specials and multi part events that reward watching from the start. If a premiere overruns, the schedule on this page updates so start times remain accurate.

Picture and performance
National Geographic Wild is widely available in high definition. Expect crisp photography, readable maps and graphics, and smooth motion for fast action sequences. Streaming typically runs a few seconds behind over the air reception; that small delay is normal and helps keep playback stable on variable connections.
Availability note
Live access is intended for viewers in the UK and Ireland. Programme rights can vary by territory and by season, which may affect availability when you travel. Devices may also enforce region settings automatically.
