A new documentary featuring Dubai wildlife will air on OSN in October. The documentary, produced for Discovery by UK-based Plimsoll Productions, will explore the traditions of camel racing and falconry. There will also be a focus on the impact of heritage on the commitment to protect the wider environment and its wildlife.

"This documentary will reveal a side to Dubai never seen before and reinforce Discovery’s ongoing commitment to raise awareness about the ways in which we can protect and care for our wildlife and ecosystems,” said Amanda Turnbull, Vice President & General Manager, Discovery Middle East and Africa.

Wild Dubai will show exclusively on OSN channel 500 and on OSN Play and On Demand for catch up viewing. Follow the action Discovery's Facebook channel @DiscoveryChannelArabia
