This is a 'virtual ark', a large scale database of endangered speicies globally. It catalogues photographs, films, sound and information on species. For each species, the site selects and digitises an average of 10 minutes of moving footage, 6 - 10 stills and sound recordings (where appropriate), to compile a complete profile of the species' characteristic behaviour and appearance.

The project aims eventually to catalogue all species on the IUCN Red List, and also has a special section for British species.
