It's time to build awareness of the crucial role animals play in our ecosystem, in the spectacular Illuminate: Wild About Babies night projection at WA Museum Boola Bardip.

Inspired by the Wild About Babies sculpture trail, and the messages of education around endangered species it encourages, this visually rich, multisensory and large-scale piece by VJzoo will mesmerise young and old as you witness vulnerable species in their natural habit.

You will:

  • Explore a waterfall and muddy waterhole in the Congo, central Africa, featuring Hippos, Western Lowland Gorillas and Chimpanzees.
  • Visualise a Savannah sunset, as a herd of African Elephants walks across a plain, silhouetted against a colourful sunset.
  • Witness an abandoned ancient temple in India, reclaimed by the jungle. Indian Elephants, Royal Bengal Tigers and Leopards move between the overgrown ruins.
  • Head to the mountainside, where a Marsican Brown Bear family forages and plays on a rocky slope in the Appenines, near Rome.

Watch as these beautiful creatures slowly disappear from sight, with messages of their vulnerability appearing on screen — and find out what you can do to make a difference.
