North America: Virtual Zoo Tours & Aquariums

San Diego Zoo

If there’s one virtual zoo trip to place on top of your online ‘travel’ bucket list – it’s San Diego Zoo.

But wait, guys. There’s more to your San Diego Zoo virtual tour and online experience. Way more. Ensure that you pop a visit to the dedicated kids’ section of the website for a myriad of animal-focused learning activities, art and crafts video tutorials, home experiment ideas and educational games.

Oh, and if you have a VR headset handy, now’s the time to pop them over your head and check into their YouTube channel to immerse yourselves in 360º videos, like this one of giant tortoises eating watermelon.

Atlanta Zoo

In need of a cute animal fix that’s not your own household pet? Atlanta Zoo has got you covered with their world-famous live PandaCam . Meet the ridiculously adorable panda twins, Ya Lun and Xi Lun, who are melting hearts across the globe with their playful antics and just all-round cuteness.

Georgia Aquarium

Yes. We’re parents and.. yes, we love to travel, so I can safely say that we’ve been to a crapload of aquariums around the world. If there isn’t an aquarium on our city itinerary, then something has gone horribly wrong in the planning process.

Of all the aquariums we have visited, none have, so far, compared to Georgia Aquarium. Not even close. If you’re an aquarium nut like we are – you need to put a  physical visit to this spectacular place on your travel bucket list.

For now, you can, of course, experience this epic aquarium virtually via their virtual aquarium tour and live cam feed where you can soothe your soul gazing at dancing jellyfish or stare in awe at the Beluga whale.

Taronga Zoo 

To experience one of the southern hemisphere’s best virtual zoos, you can’t go past Sydney’s newly launched Taronga TV . Tune into the live cams to view animal exhibits, shows, keeper chats, and even take a peek inside the Wildlife Hospital.

13 Amazing Zoo Visits: A Zoo Virtual Tour

zoo virtual tours

Are you running out of interesting ideas to keep the little ones occupied? Are you tired of reading the same storybook, watching the same cartoons, or singing the same set of children’s songs for your kids? Why not let them visit the zoo while keeping them safe inside your homes? Yes, that is possible these days using virtual tours. Virtually visiting zoos is one of the best ways to keep them entertained and informed about animal habitats and behaviors.

There are several zoos you can visit virtually with your kids. Once you are done with your zoo visit, you can do a virtual tour of some museums and theme parks as well. But, we will discuss more on that in our next blogs. For now, take note of these lists for your visual zoo visits.

San Diego Zoo – Visit their website a get a chance to watch the live video stream of animals like the ape, baboon, burrowing owl, condor, elephant, giraffe, hippo, koala, panda, penguin, platypus, polar bear, and tiger.

• Houston Zoo – This zoo is also equipped with a live cam where your kids could virtually spend time watching the giant river otter, the elephant, the giraffe, the gorilla, flamingo, chimp, and even as small as the leafcutter ants do their thing.
• Atlanta Zoo – This zoo has a live stream video of their cute panda. Watch them as they munch through bamboo leaves.
• Chester Zoo – This zoo makes use of its social media account, Facebook, and Youtube for a live feed of animals for an entire day. Your kids could virtually watch the butterflies flutter in-between flowers or the fishes swim across beautiful corals.
• Cincinnati Zoo – The pandemic gave birth to Home Safari Facebook Live where animals become the star of the live video stream. Children would learn about how safari animals are being taken care of. They can watch vultures, sloths, meerkats, aardwolves, and many more.
• Georgia Aquarium – If you or the little ones are more interested in sea creatures, then visit the live stream of Georgia Aquarium. You can virtually interact with the beluga whales, African penguins, sea otters, or watch the feeding frenzy of piranhas.
• Monterey Bay Aquarium – This zoo has a live cam set on its aviary. This sure is a hit if you are into birdwatching. You can also switch to other views as Monterey Bay Aquarium also offers a live stream on their Moon Jelly, and Sharks. But perhaps for people who are into freediving and snorkeling, the open sea cam will get you more interested.
• National Aquarium in Baltimore- Unlike the seven locations mentioned above offering live streams of animals, National Aquarium offers a panoramic view of the area. You can pan to the left or to the right to watch different animals. Make use of the View Map tab to switch to different floors and move from sea creatures to land animals. The Explore Scene allows you to choose between specific animals you would want to check out. If you are unfamiliar with navigating around a virtual tour website, just click the Instruction tab and it will show you the complete instructions on how to enjoy the virtual tour. Their website is powered by Samurai Virtual Tours which provides a four-level view of the entire place.
• Smithsonian’s National Zoo & Conservation Biology Institute in Washington – When you virtually visit this zoo you will get to enjoy giant pandas and learn about their behavior and eating habits. You can also virtually watch black-footed ferrets, elephants, lions, and the naked mole rats in their everyday living. There is a feature where you get to learn more about these animals when you download the Animal Cam Bingo Cards.

10. New England Aquarium – You can watch the penguin colony or the variation of marine creatures swim along with their huge ocean tank at the comfort of your home. The zoo also offers virtual programs such as virtual academy programs and virtual animal encounters. These are exciting ways for your kids to continue learning about animals. They would also have a chance to learn from aquarium educators.

11. London Zoo – Similar to National Aquarium, London Zoo offers more than a live cam for virtual tours, thanks to 360virtual tour provider. If you have not visited the United Kingdom and you are curious about what their zoo looks like, you can take a peek using their virtual tour. It will give an idea of how huge the place is. You can navigate around the areas and see where the animals are kept.

12. Australia Zoo – Visiting the zoo does not require you to fly out to the land down under. They are actively using their Youtube channel so animal lovers like yourselves could still enjoy a virtual interaction with zoo animals.

13. Oregon Zoo – This zoo is a non-profit organization that provides a live stream of its animals. Your kids could watch the goats run around, or red pandas enjoying some snacks.

From the list mentioned above, the majority of the zoo can be visited virtually by the live cam on their websites or their social media channels. Only a handful of them have a 360 virtual tour feature and this is a great opportunity to make zoo visits more interactive, engaging, and educational. The combination of innovative solutions such as 360 technology and virtual reality can create a more immersive experience for your children who are always curious about learning new things. The restrictions of being confined inside our homes should not stop our children and us too from continuously learning about the world of animals. The only way that the next generation could better take care of these animals is to understand and to know more about them. So, take time to nurture their curiosity by virtually taking them to amazing zoo visits. Do not miss the 360 virtual tour for some cool navigation features.

At Momentum 360 , we pride ourselves in being a top choice for 360 virtual tours for zoos, museums and theme park areas. Feel free to reach out anytime for an opportunity to add some 3D virtual tours to these areas.

Madonna is taking a minute to honor her kids.

On Thursday, April 25, the singer, 65, shared a series of behind-the-scenes photos on Instagram of herself and her kids from the past few months after they joined her on stage during her Celebration Tour. In the first photo, Madonna is surrounded by three of her six kids — son David, 18 and twins Estere and Stella, 11 — as they engulf her in a group hug.

Other photos show David and Madonna playing guitar together, daughter Mercy, 18, getting a kiss on the cheek from one of her sisters, as well as scenes of all of them on stage with their mother.

"On the day before our 80th show of the Celebration Tour I need to acknowledge my incredibly talented children who carried me through this Journey each of them bringing their own unique talent to the stage," the proud mom began in her caption.

"Rehearsals began over a year ago with almost a 2 month break waiting for me recover from a near death experience. They never stopped practicing… they never stopped cheering me on and supporting me," she continued. "There [sic] enthusiasm kept me Going!!!"

"They were also going to school and rehearsing every night. !! . am so very proud of all of them. I think what my children learned the most this year of rehearsing and performing is that if you who to follow your dreams, you have to work hard for them."

"And if all of them choose something different later in life, they will never forget this year of blood, sweat, and tears. Nor will I. ♥️ It’s a CELEBRATION," Madonna ended her caption.

In an interview with  W. Magazine earlier this week, the "Material Girl" singer spoke about her Celebration Tour , which concludes in the coming weeks with a few stops in South America.

"When I go on tour, nothing brings me more happiness than to know we are all working on the same show, creating the magic together," the proud mom said. "It would be boring if they were just traveling from hotel to hotel, and occasionally coming to watch the show."

"Of course, I am their mother so sometimes we get on each other's nerves. We are a family of artists but we are also a family, and that's what happens."

Madonna is mom to six kids — Lourdes, 27, Rocco, 23, David, Mercy, and twins Stella and Estere. Her son David and daughters Mercy, Stella and Estere joined her on stage for this tour.
