National Zoo and Aquarium Month

June is National Zoo and Aquarium Month. In case you aren't able to or if you don't have the time, you can visit some zoos and aquariums virtually through live or recorded videos of some of their exhibits. Some zoos and aquariums worldwide offer this feature on their website or through their official YouTube pages. This gives you a chance to visit zoos and aquariums from around the world that you may not get the chance to visit. Also, you can check out books and videos from the library that discuss zoos, aquariums, and animals to learn more!

Here is a short list of some of the zoos that have live feeds/recorded videos. To find more, you can search for "zoo live camera":
