How to Stream Animal Planet Live Without Cable

If you want Animal Planet without a hefty price tag, Philo might be a better choice for you. Out of all the streamers listed, it has the lowest price, though it also has the smallest number of channels. It's a fine alternative if you're not looking for sports or local TV.

You can watch Animal Planet on all DirecTV Stream plans. While it can be a bit pricey, the cost may be worth it if you're sharing your plan with a large family. That's because you can stream up to 20 devices at the same time in your house, and 3 devices outside. However, if you don't need that many streams, and if you're looking for something cheaper, Animal Planet is also available on their MyEntertainment plan listed below.

Hulu + Live TV is one of the pricier options in this list. However, while similar in cost, Hulu + Live TV has a better selection of on-demand films and shows. That means you can watch the Animal Planet channel, as well as National Geographic shows like Secrets of the Penguins. If you already have Hulu, adding live TV to your existing on-demand plan is likely to be cheaper than subscribing to a new one.

Out of all the streamers in this list, YouTube TV has the largest number of channels. Aside from Animal Planet, nature lovers can also enjoy channels like National Geographic, NetGeo Wild, and the Smithsonian Channel. If you're sharing the plan with your family, the streamer's line-up is sure to have something for everyone.
