    The Wildlife Focus website was set up by the World Land Trust early in January 2008 to offer unique, high-quality multimedia content showing wildlife in remote South American rainforests. There is live footage from three webcams, one in the cloud forest of Ecuador and two in the Brazilian Atlantic Rainforest. Each webcam is visited by a wide variety of rainforest wildlife including many hummingbird species, brightly coloured tanagers, parakeets and toucans. The site also streams video clips of other birds and rainforest animals filmed at Buenaventura and other reserves. The quality of the live images is extremely good, except when temporarily affected by climatic conditions. The site also offers podcasts and a virtual tour to show more about endangered wildlife and their habitats - and the conservation efforts needed to keep them safe.
