ARKive

I came a cross this interesting website; ARKive. If you love nature as much as I do you will like the images and movies on this website complete with a lot of information!
ARKive is the Noah's Ark for the Internet era - a unique global initiative, gathering together into one centralised digital library, films, photographs and audio recordings of the world’s species. Films and photographs are an emotive, powerful and effective means of building environmental awareness – they can bring a scientific name to life, show what a species looks like and why it is special. As such, they are a valuable educational resource and conservation tool. ARKive is a not-for-profit initiative of Wildscreen, a UK-based charity, whose mission is ‘to promote the conservation of nature and public appreciation of biodiversity, through the power of wildlife imagery’.
