San Diego Zoo
The 100-acre (40-hectare) Zoo is home to over 4,000 rare and endangered animals representing more than 800 species and subspecies, and a prominent botanical collection with more than 700,000 exotic plants. It is located just north of downtown San Diego in Balboa Park.

Wild Animal Park
The Wild Animal Park is an expansive wildlife sanctuary that is home to more than 3,500 animals representing more than 400 species. Its renowned botanical collection represents 3,500 species and 1.5 million specimens. Over half of the Park’s 1,800 acres (730 hectares) have been set aside as protected native species habitat. It is located 35 miles (56 kilometers) north of downtown San Diego in the San Pasqual Valley near Escondido, California.

Conservation and Research for Endangered Species (CRES)
CRES is one of the largest zoo-based research centers in the world. Founded in 1975, CRES is dedicated to preserving and protecting rare and endangered wildlife and habitats. CRES researchers develop, gather, and increase knowledge vital for the establishment of self-sustaining populations of wildlife.

Alpaca Cam from the Blue Moon Ranch (Woodland, UT) -- "What you will see in the picture is a view of the female pasture, under the barn overhang or inside the barn depending on where the alpacas are. I switch the camera from inside to the best view. The alpacas are usually outside unless it is raining or snowing, but always inside for pellet feeding time. That is when you might see the big green door closed."

ALSO SEE: Yellow Wood Llama Farm (Indianapolis, IN)

Toledo Zoo Web Cams -- They have a Baby Elephant Cam, Hippo Underwater Cam, Seal Underwater Cam, and a Polar Bear Cam. As of posting this info, the Polar Bear Cam is down for maintenance. Viewing the live streaming webcam requires that you allow their ActiveX control to be installed.
