Explore.org: Live cams to watch animals worldwide  

Explore.org is a philanthropic international organization that, along with a documentary film channel, offers over 100 webcams for watching animals in various natural settings around the world.

For example, the image accompanying this article was captured last Monday while preparing this text. It shows a brown bear hunting at Brooks Falls in Katmai National Park, Alaska (USA). During these mesmerizing live minutes, the bear caught several salmon and then played with its cubs.

Explore.org's live cam collection is nicknamed "Pearls of the Planet". The mission is to allow people to experience nature up close and personal so they can fall in love with the world, according to their website.

Each webcam includes information about its location and the animal species that can be observed, among other interesting details.

A great way to explore Axios' editorial offerings is through its newsletters, particularly the "Axios Daily Essentials". These include three free daily newsletters: "AM" in the morning, "PM" in the afternoon, and "Finish Line" at night, providing the essential news users need to know each day.

The AM and PM editions are written by Mike Allen, one of Axios' co-founders. The evening edition is managed by Jim VandeHei (another co-founder and CEO of Axios), Mike Allen, and Erica Pandey.
