The ASPCA’s Animaland, sponsored in part by the Disney Wildlife Conservation Fund, teaches children about companion animals and endangered species. The site is fun and educational. Children can play games, send postcards, read about careers with animals, watch cartoons about pet care, and submit their questions to a macaw named Azula. Great fun for kids ages 4-12.

Neopets
March 27, 2001 -- From Jennifer, a parent from Ontario, Canada who is not affiliated with the site
Children of all ages (even parents) can choose a Neopet (similar to Pokemon creatures) to play games with, feed, etc. In order to buy your Neopet toys, food, weapons (to challenge another Neopet if you wish), etc. you must collect Neopoints. To do so, there are a ton of neat games (eg. Bingo, Hide and Seek, Treasure Hunt, etc.), all rated by skill level. Usability: great — games download quickly. Site is easy to navigate, which is like a small community. Great fun!

Wild Cams: Elephant Seals
December 21, 2000 -- From Amanda Britz from New York, NY who is affiliated with the site
Far from the hustle and bustle of shopping malls and crowded parking lots, the site features live daily feeds of elephant seals in their natural habitat, from the shores of California’s Ano Nuevo State Reserve. Among other things, visitors can learn interesting factoids about the curious animals. While humans gain anywhere from five to ten pounds during the holiday season, the elephant seals are doing their fair share of eating too, consuming as much as 45 pounds of fish a day to maintain their 1000 pound girth.
