A Bioblitz is an event at which a group of volunteers get together to find and identify as many different native plants and animals as possible in a given area.
Join Reid Park Zoo on Sunday, November 5th to participate in a Zoo-wide Bioblitz and become a community scientist for the day! Learn how you can participate in science by posting your wildlife observations to iNaturalist, a community database that scientists use to save wild animals and wild places.
All ages and experience levels are welcome. Identification skills are not necessary. Observations will be uploaded to the iNaturalist app where other community scientists will help identify what we find.
This event is free with paid Zoo admission. Advance registration is recommended.
Bioblitz Tips:
Items to bring (if you have them): binoculars, cameras, field guides, and your smartphone to document the data
