Description
What is a bioblitz? Think of it as a nature scavenger hunt where scientists, naturalists, students, and community members come together to identify as many species as possible (plants, animals, fungi, and other organisms) within a particular area over a set time period.
Why are we doing a bioblitz? We want to know what species live on the UW-Madison campus to help us guide ecological restoration and management of the Preserve.
Who can join? Curious beginners to experts!
