"Vancouver Aquarium answers six common questions in bullet format in this single-page shark fact sheet. Where do sharks live? What makes a shark a shark? What do sharks eat? How do sharks reproduce? Are sharks dangerous? How do sharks detect their prey? Other AquaFacts pages cover whales, harbor seals, sea turtles and dolphins. There are also some excellent pages on marine biology careers such as marine mammal trainer and whale researcher."

Animaland
Reviewed May 16, 2001 a reader from NYC, NY who is affiliated with the site. The ASPCA’s Animaland, sponsored in part by the Disney Wildlife Conservation Fund, teaches children about companion animals and endangered species. The site is fun and educational. Children can play games, send postcards, read about careers with animals, watch cartoons about pet care, and submit their questions to a macaw named Azula. Great fun for kids ages 4-12.

Since our site is family friendly, we DO NOT list any peresonal web cams.

Animal Planet: Meet the Pandas
"Mei Xiang and Tian Tian arrived from China at the Smithsonian National Zoo on December 6, 2000. Animal Planet called them " Washington’s newest power couple." Judging from "the popping flashbulbs of panda paparazzi" that greeted their Federal Express flight, they were right. The great photos, streaming video, and wonderful interactive features (don’t miss Wild Pandas) make this site my pick of the day! Panda lovers of all ages will find something here. Your littlest ones will enjoy clicking around the photo galleries, and older students will appreciate the well-written features."

Animal Planet: Dolphins Explored
"After mousing around the Dolphin Tour and learning what a melon is, discover the parallels between human and dolphin intelligence, and listen to the squeaks and whistles of both a dolphin and a killer what. For a fun read, don’t miss the Dolphin Facts. ""Unlike any other mammal, dolphin babies are born tail first."""

Animal Planet
"Discovery’s Animal Planet houses ten geographically-diverse critter cams all in one homepage. Crisscrossing the continent, they include six cameras focused on Siberian tigers in the privately owned TigerHomes animal sanctuary in Florida, sharks swimming in the Giant Ocean Tank exhibit at the New England Aquarium in Boston, and polar bears in the Montreal Biome. Because of differing time zones, each cam has its own optimal viewing time. (HT, PT, CT, ET)"
