wildlife watching
Spotting animals outdoors
Wildlife watching is the recreational observation of animals in their natural habitats.
It encompasses birdwatching, whale watching, and safari tourism, among other forms.
The activity ranges from casual backyard observation to organized expeditions: We spent the morning wildlife watching at the nature reserve.
The appeal lies in witnessing animal behavior undisturbed by human interference.
