Put on a helmet — you're in for a wild pelican-powered ride.

Luckily for him, resort workers took him in and helped him on his way. And luckily for us, they put a GoPro camera on his beak so we could see his first flight.
Bigbird takes a journey around Mahale Mountain National Park, playing high-flying virtual tour guide for the area's natural wonders. Hey presto: instant mental vacation, no passport needed.
