Animal Planet to Develop TV Series for YouTube Star Coyote Peterson

Animal Planet is working with Coyote Peterson to develop a TV series featuring wild expeditions and rare up-close animal experiences. The series will premiere in 2019 and will feature Coyote as he brings the animal kingdom up close for the next wave of explorers, while promoting compassion and welfare for the natural world.

The logline: Coyote will travel to all new destinations and share his experiences with the most fascinating, bizarre, and iconic animals on earth. Together with his crew, which includes director Mark Vins and wildlife biologist Mario Aldecoa, they will share their breathtaking adventures.

“Coyote is curious, fearless and very passionate about animals and animal conservation, inspiring a whole new generation of animal enthusiasts,” said Kurt Tondorf, Animal Planet’s Senior Vice President of Development. “We are delighted Coyote’s bringing his infectious enthusiasm and knowledge to Animal Planet. We look forward to sharing his new animal adventures with his “Coyote Pack” of fans and our audiences across all screens around the globe.”
