Nature video website, WildEarth.TV, have announced a dedicated 3D channel in conjunction with French IPTV provider, Free.

Wild Earth have been broadcasting online for three years now, and are the latest TV provider to move into 3D (though their offering relies less on 3D sports than other channels, and more on the fact that getting terrorised by a stereoscopic lion live in your own living room sounds pretty fun). They use a side-by-side 3DHD rig similar to those available from us, here.

CEO and co-founder of Wild Earth, Graham Wallington, told Broadbandtvnews.com their aim is to create a fully immersive, realistic nature experience. "We are creating a sense of telepresence by transmitting live and giving people the feeling of what it is like to be on safari. There is no scripted narrative, no staged events or cutaways to recorded footage of lion kills. This is safari as it happens," he added.

You'll need a 3D TV and a Free.fr subscription (or to be living in France) to watch Wild Earth's 3D output at the moment, but they will soon be supporting a range of internet-enabled set-top boxes so you can receive it anywhere.
