Animal Planet to Present 'Super Cute Holiday Week' Beginning 12/12

Animal Planet's December is merry and bright with SUPER CUTE HOLIDAY WEEK - 13 fun-filled days of festive episodes, adorable animals and sneak peeks from upcoming new and returning series. This two-week celebration kicks off Monday, December 12 and "wraps" Sunday, December 25.

SUPER CUTE HOLIDAY WEEK spreads the joy of the season by bringing back "spruced-up", fan-favorite specials from holidays past while spiking the days with all-new holiday fare. In a special TREEHOUSE MASTERS episode, Pete and his merry men - donning festive cheer from head to toe - trek deep INTO THE BLUE Ridge Mountains of North Carolina to build a treehouse for one of their own; on a new TANKED, Wayde and Brett team up with singer Ali Simpson to donate a tank to Hurley Medical Center for her charity - Children's Miracle Network; and in a "re-lit" MONSTERS INSIDE ME, the holidays aren't so merry when parasites are eating away at your brain.

If there isn't a fire roaring in the background on Christmas morning, viewers can tune into SUPER CUTE YULE LOG - a compellation of holiday scenes featuring fluffy puppies, cuddly kittens, baby goats and more frolicking to seasonal tunes. Keep the slippers on, grab a cup of eggnog and enjoy the hour-long aww-dorableness.

SUPER CUTE HOLIDAY WEEK is the gift that keeps on giving with exclusive looks at programming premiering in 2017. Viewers will be introduced to all-new series such as ANIMAL NATION WITH ANTHONY ANDERSON, THE GUARDIANS (wt) and THE ZOO and re-introduced to popular returning shows such as: DR. JEFF: ROCKY MOUNTAIN VET, FINDING BIGFOOT, PUPPY BOWL and TREEHOUSE MASTERS.

Fans of Animal Planet should also be on the lookout for special appearances from network talent. Jeremy Wade (RIVER MONSTERS), Tia Torres and family (PIT BULLS & PAROLEES); Jackson Galaxy (MY CAT FROM HELL); Wayde King and Brett Raymer (TANKED); Pete Nelson (TREEHOUSE MASTERS); and Dr. Diarra Blue, Dr. Aubrey Ross, and Dr. Michael Lavigne (THE VET LIFE) wish everyone happy holidays with personalized messages throughout SUPER CUTE HOLIDAY WEEK.
