Sony Pictures Networks India CMO & business head, Hindi movies, English, Bengali, Marathi, infotainment channels Tushar Shah said, "We are excited to bring Mammals, a captivating series that explores the extraordinary world of the animal kingdom, to Sony BBC Earth. This show portrays the resilience, intelligence, and beauty of mammals while also highlighting the challenges they face in a rapidly changing environment. Our commitment to delivering exceptional content remains strong, and we are dedicated to bringing our viewers the best-in-class experience through it."
Mammals’ executive producer Roger Webb said, “I was a big fan of the original Life of Mammals series, which was 20 years ago, and lots has changed in that time. I felt there's a story to be told about mammals today, and how they're adapting to us and all the changes that are going on in the world. Through the episodes, we explored this adaptability and the ability to cope with almost any situation and environmental condition. It shows the fact mammals can live in the coldest places and the hottest places on earth, and they can go down a mile plus in the ocean. They all have similar traits and things in common that make them mammals, but they can do the most incredible things as a group. It’s also great that we've got Sir David Attenborough at the top of the series. He is the master of storytelling; he sets us on an absolutely right path by explaining how mammals have risen to be so successful today.”
