Many zoos and wildlife parks worldwide have been temporarily closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but the animals still need lots of care, attention and of course, food! You can tune in to watch animals play, relax and eat all from the comfort of your own home.
Cincinnati Zoo

The Cincinnati Zoo introduced a new Facebook Live 'Home Safari' show, airing every weekday at 3pm ET. Each episode features a different animal and an accompanying educational kids activity that can be done from home. Once each day's show is over, the video is posted to the zoo's website. Visitors can see famous hippo Fiona swimming around and Rico the porcupine eating a spoonful of peanut butter.

You can have a zoo at home for yourself thanks to Google’s initiative. In these days of social distancing, it’s easy to see children posing with the augmented reality feature from Google. All you need is to google an animal, for example: “tiger”, click the “view in 3D” button, then click “view in your space” to see the tiger moving in your own surroundings. There are loads of different animals you can see through the feature such as lion, panda, cheetah and shark. Your device will need to be AR-enabled and use Android 7.0 or iOS 11.0 or later. VNS
