Animal Jam was created by WildWorks in collaboration with National Geographic Society. Our goal is to inspire children to explore and protect the natural world outside their own doors, making science accessible and fun! Animal Jam is a safe and exciting online and mobile playground for kids who love animals, the outdoors, and learning. Players create and customize their own animal characters and dens, chat with friends, adopt pets, team up for adventures, and feed their curiosity about animals and the natural world around them. Animal Jam features classic playground role playing infused with the life sciences. Players can collect fun facts in their journey books, learn about Animal Conservation in Kimbara Outback, and talk to real scientists, like marine biologist, Dr. Tierney Thys, and wild life veterinarian, Gabby Wild.
