BBC hid cameras inside 36 robot animals to give viewers a close-up view of wildlife for their “Spy in the Wild” TV special. The animals included a baby gorilla, sea turtle, jaguar, humming bird and pygmy elephant. Each one was equipped with a concealed camera to film animals in their natural habitats.
The BBC crew didn’t just find a stuffed animal to put these cameras in, as they spent hundreds of thousands on detailed robotic spy creatures, to ensure that they looked, sounded and moved so realistically they would blend right into their real wildlife habitats.
