Keep an Eye on the Animals

Animals are intriguing and teach us so much about nature and the world we live in. In this amazing world of technology, we can take a visual trip to a zoo or go on a safari without leaving home. Below there are several links to live animal cams and videos from all over the world that will intrigue children for hours. please remind your children when they watch the live cams, some of the animals may be out of view because they move around their habitats. That is what makes the cams such a great teaching tool; it is real life. So enjoy hours of keeping your eyes on the animals!
