This is the smartphone app that can be enjoyed along with the artwork "Catching and Collecting Extinct Forest".

- Catch
Point the app's camera at animals and release a Research Eye to capture them.
You can also set up a Research Net at your feet.

- Collect
The animals you catch will be shown in the app's illustrated collection book.

- Release
Once you've captured an animal, you can swipe it over a location visible through the app's camera to return it to that spot.

- Research
The more animals you catch, the more detailed information will be added to your collection book about that animal.

Ratings and reviews

Doesn't work reliably: nets rarely caught anything and aiming often caught something I couldn't see (sea creatures instead of a giraffe), but works well enough to get the experience. a lot of fun anyway.

This is an app that lets me learn more about extinct animals, given that I myself am a true animal lover. To all the animal lovers out there, I highly recommend this app.

Having to install a separate app instead of having it as part of the main app is obnoxious.
