Cameras mounted on animals gives us all a peek into their everyday lives. Some of the critter cams are on cows, wolves, scorpions, a housefly, an alligator, caribou, a tarantula and even armadillos just to name some and features action packed presentations such as "Falcon Landing" and "Wolf Sniffing After a Squirrel".

So far I like 'Wolf Sniffing After a Squirrel', 'Turkey Running Through Tall Grass', 'Scorpion Crawling Over a Rock' and I will never know how they got a camera mounted on a housefly but they did as evidenced in 'Housefly on Window Screen'. 'Falcon Landing' is kinda trippy.

Great Thread coco, a great use of technology to aide us in understanding our friends in the Critter World.

Have you seen the Video of the CC(crittercam) mounted on a Falcons neck? :eek:

200mph dives!! :eek:

I would like to see a Chipmunks lair. They are very energetic hoarders.

Thanx

You're welcome! I'm glad you're enjoying it. I think it's awesome, personally. Some of the perspectives are amazing. When that wolf was sniffing out a squirrel he jammed his nose into the ground so hard a couple of times and sniffed so deeply. I would think that would hurt his nose!

Whoa, that was cool! :D I know how we hoominfolk don't like being monitored, so let's hope TPTB don't get any bright ideas about watching us with housefly cams!!!

Good grief! I never thought about that!
