Lincoln Park Zoo
"If you have homework to do, a column to write, or any other important business to get to, do not even think about looking at the live Tiger Cam. Once you see the tigers, start playing with the zoom, and realize you can move the camera around by clicking anywhere on the image, you’ll be hooked. After you pry yourself away from the tigers, you can visit the rest of the animals by taking the virtual tour, or by clicking on the Mammals, Birds or Reptiles/Amphibians headings."

Lincoln Park Zoo
"Take a tour of Chicago’s Lincoln Park Zoo by following one of the color-coded trails to the animal exhibits or jump to the live animal cams at the bottom of the page. The trails lead to individual animal fact pages, which are fun for browsing and useful for school reports. Only two of three Web cams were operational when I visited: one at the Swan Pond, and another focused on the Great Ape House. Zoom in and out to view the animals, and click "Add to Album" to snap a still photo."

Let’s Paw Around at Rugrot
Reviewed September 17, 1999 by Tina from New Mexico who is affiliated with the site. I believe this site gives a good overview of the breed the Rottweiler and also gives people a chance to see what great dogs they are. Sometimes they can even be quite silly. You can also find interesting facts about the breed and how much a nine year and her dog love one another.

Koko.org: Gorilla Foundation
"In 1971, Francine ""Penny"" Patterson began teaching Koko, a newborn lowland gorilla, American Sign Language. Koko proved an able pupil, and her vocabulary has grown to 1000 words. The Gorilla Foundation (of Woodside, CA) has a dual mission of interspecies communication and gorilla preservation. First stop for elementary-age students should be the excellent Koko’s Kids Club. Older students will find oodles of information about the amazing ""talking"" Koko in Koko’s World and general gorilla background material in About Gorillas. Teachers can receive a free information packet by clicking on the Teacher icon at the top of the Kids Club. Happy 30th Birthday, Koko!"

King Cobra
"National Geographic presents a spectacular tongue-to-tail tour of the infamous King Cobra. "It has a head as big as a man’s hand and can stand tall enough to look you straight in the eye." Although drop for drop, his venom is less lethal than other cobra’s, the King makes up for it in volume. A single King Cobra bite delivers enough venom to kill twenty people. I’m sure glad that I’m observing him from the safety of my Internet connection. Click on the snake head to start."
