We have two major aquariums in Norwalk and Mystic, one zoo in Bridgeport, and many shelters, refuges, and pet boarding houses around the state, and some have set up webcams to livestream 24/7, or when their animals are active.

There are more than you would imagine, I found quite a few during my search, so I came up with a list of some of the best. Here's how can watch nearby kittens frolic, red pandas sneeze, spider monkeys climb, penguins, bats, and Beluga whales play from the comfort of your own home.

My friend Gerri Griswold is the Bat Champion of Connecticut, she knows more about bats than anyone I've ever known, and she is also in charge of Litchfield's White Memorial Foundation and Conservation Center. Through ct.gov, you can watch a live stream of a barn at White Memorial as part of a five-year partnership with the state dubbed Bats Count! Each evening viewers can try to keep count of brown bats as they fly off into the night.

Here's How to Watch Whales, Penguins, and Seals

Mystic Aquarium and the Maritime Aquarium in Norwalk host multiple webcams, Mystic Aquarium livestreams Beluga Whales, and Penguins, while the Maritime Aquarium has trained their webcams on their Ocean Beyond the Sound tank. Syman Says Farm in Salem, Connecticut has a live webcam trained on their goats, and the Bearsley Zoo has a Red Panda cam and a Spider monkey cam.
