Field Trips — Zoos and Zoo Cams

Since today is Zoo Lovers Day, why not try a virtual visit to the zoo?  Here’s a list (by no means comprehensive) of some of the best webcams from zoos and animal parks from around the world!  Just remember, these are live and the animals will do what they want, so if you don’t see anyone, try again later.

MULTI-CAMS

Chattanooga Zoo  — Four cams set up, with tamarinds, snow leopard, and a spotted genet.

Houston Zoo — Like a window into Africa with elephants, gorillas, chimpanzees, and even leaf-cutter ants.

Maryland Zoo  — Five cameras, featuring lions, flamingos, and goats (though not together).

National Zoo (Washington DC) — Four different cameras, including the pandas.

Reid Park Zoo (Tuscon AZ) — Seven cams show off their giraffes, lions, grizzly bears, and lemurs.

San Diego Zoo Live Cams — One dozen different cameras with a wide variety of species.
