Crittercam Chronicles

Have you ever wondered what it was like to see our world through the eyes of a wild animal? Have you ever wondered what it would be to BE a wild animal? Todays Family Site can help fulfill some of those desires.

It is called the Crittercam Chronicles, and it is just like what it sounds. A camera on a critter. In this case, the animals are ocean going sharks, whales, and turtles, among others. This is the idea of Greg Marshall, and has been years in the making. He has attached cameras to the back of these seagoing animals, and you can experience their life the way they do. He even tested it on his cat, and the video is here to give you a glimpse of the upcoming National Geographic special.

This is a most interesting topic, and a most unusual way to collect pictures. I am sure you will be as fascinated with the information here as I was. Enjoy your stop.
