originate from the vivid imagination and late night web-surfing
of Dr. Ken Boschert, a Veterinarian at Washington University's Division
of Comparative Medicine, located in St. Louis, Missouri. Among this server's
Web Pages are numerous views of Veterinary Medical and Animal resources
available on the Internet and beyond. See What's
New and be sure to visit this week's best animal-related Web site,
the Pick of the Litter.
North
American Animals: by the Game Warden’s Place: “Do
you like animals?
Well if you do, you can find a lot of North America's Wildlife right
here at the Game Warden's Place. You know, we game warden's like animals
to. As a matter of fact, wildlife animals are our job. One of the most
important things that a game warden does is to protect the wild animals
from poachers. We call a poacher, anyone that tries to
take wildlife unlawfully. So, just sit back with your mouse and click
on one of the categories below to see a slide show of some North American
Animals…”

Quillo's
Online Zoo!
Hello, I am Quillo the hedgehog. Welcome to my zoo! Follow Quillo through
his “virtual zoo”.
The
Virtual Silurian Reef : by the Milwaukee
Public Museum: During the Silurian Period in earth history, 425 million
years ago, when much of North America was covered by a shallow, tropical
sea, reefs flourished in the area now occupied by Wisconsin and Illinois.
This site uses these reefs as a vehicle for students to learn general
principles, local details, and environmental significance of the study
of the ancient past.
The
Virtual Zoo:
This web site was designed to bring a virtual zoo to anyone
with access to the internet, regardless of their location in the world.
Through the ThinkQuest program, we were
able to accomplish this goal. Our zoo is a powerful educational tool which
serves to heighten the general public's awareness of animals throughout
the world. It also informs all students accessing our website about the
alarming rate of human expansion into various animals' habitats.
Wildlife Web:
The Wildlife Web covers links and information for a wide variety of animal
Web sites including: amphibians, birds, fish, invertebrates, mammals,
and reptiles. Many sounds and high quality photographs - from Aye-ayes
to Zebras - are also available for your enjoyment.
Zooish:
Enter a real life world with Zooish and watch the animal kingdom and nature
come to life.
Zoos Online: This will only
cover a mere fraction of the world’s zoos. I have tried to put zoo pages
with some interactive areas or good multi media presentations on this
page.
