Watch America's symbol raise their young in massive nests positioned high in trees. Observe feeding, nest maintenance, flying lessons, and the tender care eagles provide their eaglets. Multiple nests across the country provide year-round eagle viewing. Best viewing: January-August for nesting season.
Watch brown bears catch salmon leaping up the falls in one of nature's most spectacular displays. During peak salmon runs, dozens of bears congregate at this prime fishing spot in Katmai National Park. Best viewing: July-September for peak salmon run.
Multiple cameras throughout America's first national park capture Old Faithful eruptions, bison herds, elk grazing, wolves, and geothermal features. Experience the park's wonders across all seasons. Best viewing: Early morning for wildlife activity.
Watch elephants, lions, zebras, giraffes, and countless other species gather at waterholes across African preserves. Nighttime cameras reveal nocturnal wildlife behavior rarely seen. Best viewing: Dawn and dusk for peak activity.
Underwater cameras showcase kelp forests, jellyfish, sea otters, sharks, and countless Pacific marine species. Watch feeding times and natural behavior in these expertly maintained exhibits. Best viewing: Feeding times (check aquarium schedule).
From hummingbirds to ospreys, our cameras capture nesting birds across species and continents. Watch eggs hatch, chicks grow, and parents tirelessly feed their young. Best viewing: Spring and early summer for most species.
Descend into underwater worlds where tropical fish dance among living coral. These reef cameras reveal the ocean's incredible biodiversity and the beauty we must protect. Best viewing: Midday when tropical sun illuminates the reef.
Observe these intelligent predators in their natural habitats. Watch pack dynamics, hunting behavior, and the complex social structures that make wolves fascinating. Best viewing: Dawn and dusk when wolves are most active.
Wildlife viewing requires patience. Unlike zoo exhibits, wild animals aren't on schedule. Bookmark cameras and check multiple times, especially during dawn/dusk hours when wildlife is most active. The wait often makes the sightings more rewarding.
Yes! During nesting season (Jan-Aug for most US eagles), our eagle nest cameras capture feeding, nest maintenance, and eventually flying lessons. Parents bring fish multiple times daily. Most active: early morning.
Most operate 24/7, though some remote cameras may power down overnight. Night vision cameras let you observe nocturnal wildlife. Some cameras in extreme environments may have seasonal operations.
Generally yes—nature is authentic, which occasionally includes predation. Most of our cameras show peaceful wildlife behavior: feeding, playing, caring for young. Use discretion based on your children's age and sensitivity.
Professional wildlife cameras are positioned carefully to avoid disrupting natural behavior. Cameras are remote, silent, and often hidden or at distances that don't affect animals. Organizations like explore.org work with wildlife experts for ethical camera placement.
