30 millions d'amis refers at the same time to a television program, a monthly magazine with its posters, and a foundation : the Fondation 30 Millions d'Amis. These different organisms are preoccupied to all pets, especially cats, dogs, horses, ferrets, rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, hamsters, mice, canaries, parakeets, parrots, terrarium reptiles, goldfish, aquarium fish, and other exotic pets, but also wild animals like for example, bonobos and cheetahs.
The first episode of the program, initiative of the French journalist Jean-Pierre Hutin, who was worried about the fate of pets, was broadcast on 6 January 1976 on TF1. It is one of the television programs that has the largest longevity of the French audiovisual field, after Des chiffres et des lettres, Automoto, Thalassa et Stade 2. The music of the title sequence was composed by Jack Arel.
The broadcasting of the program on TF1 ended on 27 December 2003 and was transferred on 6 March 2004 on France 2. It was then broadcast since 10 September 2006 on France 3. Since 27 April 2004, the program was expanded of 20 minutes and started in September of that year its 39th season. In 2015, the program got back its initial length of 25 minutes. The voices of the program were Sylvie Bariol and Didier Gircourt.
The director of France 3 announced on 8 January 2016 on Europe 1 that after 40 years of existence, the program will definitely end in June 2016. A petition was published online on the official site, the Fondation 30 Millions d'Amis, to fight against the decision of the channel.
