Live nest cam on a wild bald eagle pair near Decorah, Iowa — one of the most-watched eagle cams in the world. Watch the adults tend eggs and raise eaglets through spring; powered by explore.org. Most active by day.

Live cam at Brooks Falls in Katmai National Park, Alaska — one of the world's greatest wildlife spectacles. Watch brown bears catch sockeye salmon mid-leap as thousands of fish run the river. Peak season July–October. Powered by Explore.org.

Live all-sky aurora borealis cam from the UAF Large Animal Research Station north of Fairbanks, Alaska. Watch the northern lights dance in real time during the active season (September–March). Dark skies, zero light pollution. Powered by Explore.org.

Explore.org camera on Dumpling Mountain above Brooks Camp in Katmai National Park, looking out over Naknek Lake and the Brooks River. A bear cam by day; on dark autumn and winter nights it is one of the few live video views of the Alaskan sky. At 58.6°N it usually needs Kp 4 or more for aurora.

Live cam on the puffin colony at Seal Island, 21 miles off the Maine coast. Watch Atlantic puffins waddling on the ledge, landing with beaks full of fish, and squabbling over prime spots. Part of Audubon's Project Puffin. Active May–August.

Live 24/7 underwater view of the Tropical Reef habitat at the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach — a Palau-inspired reef home to more than a thousand colorful fish and coral. Powered by explore.org.

Live northern lights camera from Churchill, Manitoba, on Hudson Bay, run by explore.org. Churchill is far south in geographic terms (58.7°N) but sits right under the auroral oval because of where the magnetic pole is, so aurora is often overhead at Kp 1–2.

Live cam overlooking the Mahlasela Hide watering hole inside Tembe Elephant Park on the South Africa–Mozambique border — home to Africa's largest-tusked elephants. Watch the Big Five drink, mud-bathe, and roam in a 300km² wilderness reserve. Powered by Explore.org.

Live cam at the Anan Wildlife Observatory in the Tongass National Forest, where black and brown bears fish the salmon run at Anan Creek's lower falls. One of the few places in Alaska where both bear species feed side by side. Peak activity mid-July through August. Powered by explore.org.

Live 4K cam on the Decorah North bald eagle nest in northeast Iowa — a separate nest from the long-running main Decorah cam. Watch nest-building, incubation, and fledging through the season. Powered by explore.org and the Raptor Resource Project.

Live underwater cam at Homosassa Springs, a year-round warm-water spring on Florida's Nature Coast where manatees gather. Unlike seasonal refuges, the resident manatees here are visible outside winter. Fish schools and the occasional gar share the frame.

Live cam on the ambassador wolf pack at the International Wolf Center in Ely, Minnesota. Watch pack dynamics, feeding, and howling across the Northwoods seasons. Most active at dawn and dusk. Powered by explore.org.

Live cam inside the Kitten Rescue sanctuary in Los Angeles, a no-kill shelter housing cats awaiting adoption. Continuous 24/7 view of the community room. Powered by explore.org.

explore.org's camera beside the nest the Fraser Point bald eagles moved to from their historic nest, on The Nature Conservancy's land on Santa Cruz Island in the Channel Islands. The pair are part of the Institute for Wildlife Studies' 40-plus-year bald eagle restoration on the islands, streamed with The Nature Conservancy, UC Santa Barbara and the National Park Service.

explore.org's medium view of the West End bald eagle nest on Catalina Island, run with the Institute for Wildlife Studies, whose bald eagle restoration on the Channel Islands began in 1980. The frame takes in the historic nest bowl, the perches around it and the cliffside. A new pair holds the territory as of 2026.

Live cam from the Tundra Buggy Lodge on the Hudson Bay coast outside Churchill, Manitoba, run by Polar Bears International and explore.org. Polar bears gather here each October and November waiting for the bay to freeze, so the lodge camera often shows bears walking the tundra, sparring and resting. The stream is seasonal: it runs during the fall bear migration and goes dark after freeze-up. Powered by Explore.org.
