Pictures that help us explore
A game conceptualized by Elena and Clara.
Canadian animal atlas
Most wildlife pictures are AI-generated illustrations from the atlas supplied for this project. They are identification aids rather than scientific photographs. Individual picture regions are displayed with answer labels hidden. Duplicate entries were replaced with a beluga whale and a harbour seal. The mole image was replaced with an identified eastern mole.
Wildlife photographs
Photographs are bundled locally. They are displayed proportionally without modifications to their source image pixels. Resized thumbnail versions are used.
