San Diego Zoo live cams and viral animal videos

The San Diego Zoo operates live animal webcams and publishes animal videos that are widely viewed and shared online. The zoo hosted giant pandas on loan from China from 1987 until 2019, an attraction that generated large volumes of online content and press coverage. Viral clips of animals from the zoo (elephants, koalas, apes, and others) frequently appear on social media and major video platforms. The facility is a major source of wildlife livestreams produced by San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance.
