The Pan-European feed of Animal Planet launched on 1 July 1997 in the Benelux.[1] Initially Dutch subtitles would be added in late 1997.[2] Several programs had subtitles through teletext in January 1998.[3] A few months later on, the teletext subtitles were replaced by DVB subtitles.[4] A localised Dutch feed launched on 16 February 2004.[5]
For its first ten years in existence, the channel used a logo with a globe and an elephant which was also used by its sister channels. On 1 October 2008, the channel switched to a new logo, which had previously been adopted by Animal Planet in the United States.[6]
A European high-definition version of the channel, called Animal Planet HD, launched in the Nordic countries on 3 February 2009.[7] In the Netherlands, the high-definition version of the channel launched through Glashart Media on 19 March 2010.[8]
