      Howdy – unfortunately I don’t, at least not live wildlife! I sometimes get the chance to look at fossils of microscopic plankton, which are very very beautiful. When scientists go on expeditions to Antarctica they often see some of the most amazing animals, like orcas and dolphins, and albatross, and massive whales – wildlife that is truely wild as they very rarely come into contact with humans.
