Animal Planet has launched a collection of 11 HD 24/7 Ustream-powered (http://www.engadget.com/tag/Ustream/) live streams under the banner Animal Planet L!VE, which feature animals ranging from beluga whales to cockroaches. The free critter footage is already being piped to APL.tv and Samsung Smart TVs Viewers can choose between watching ants, calves, chicks, cockroaches, beluga whales, fish swimming about in a pacific coral reef, kittens, penguins, puppies, sea nettles and wild birds. In case catching them on your smart TV or browser weren't enough, the cable channel's creature casts are coming to Roku (http://www.engadget.com/2013/04/03/dnp-roku-3-review/) and Xbox Live "in the coming months."
