Some of them include a tiger, a lion, a giant panda, a Rottweiler, a wolf, and a lot more. To use the feature one would need to type in the name of the animal in the search bar. Once done, the page will show a small box with some statistics and an animated thumbnail of the animal. The page will then ask you to “meet a life-sized” animal up close. After clicking on “View in 3D” the page will open your camera and bring forth the actual size of the animal in animated form.
