Here’s another installment of our weekly endeavor to make you laugh, have fun and in all cases waste time.

Ever wondered what you’d look like as an endangered species?

Well, no I didn’t either, but morphing into an animal sure is a fun way to waste time.

The photo project, YouWild.org, is made by Defenders of Wildlife. The non-profit set the site up as a way to attract attention on the threats to animals such as wolves and tigers.

The transformation involves uploading a photo of yourself, choosing an animal and lining up your eyes, nose and chin with the animal’s same features. Then, a short video is created that shows your face’s transform into that of the animal’s face.

And, if you’re proud of your creation, the site allows you to save your video. Those are then sent to the site’s Hall of Fame where all the best morphs are displayed. Though my transformation into a shark (shown at the right in three steps) is interesting, I’m not quite sure its good for the record hall.

Here’s some other earth-friendly, free games also found online:

• Clean Up Your World with this drag-and-drop game.
• Earth Day - click on things that cause pollution and have fun while you clean up the environment.
• Free the Beach and save the environment by dragging the litter to its proper recycling bin.
