These are some websites to get you started.  Remember to look for reliable sources! 

Reliable means: 
  • No Wikipedia
  • No Question Answering websites (ex. Ask.com, About.com)
  • No Personal websites (ex.  Susie's "I Love Dogs" page)
  • Yes to zoo websites
  • Yes to university websites (.edu)
  • Yes to government websites  (.gov)
  • Yes to reputable organizations (ex.  National Wildlife Federation)
When you finish, look for ideas or pictures for designing your project (no printing though) - then, you can play games
