Do you like a good scavenger hunt? Are you an expert at “I-Spy”? Put your skills to the test and help educators conduct a survey of the many plants and animals that live on the undeveloped portion of the zoo property! A bioblitz is a citizen-science effort to record as many species within a designated location and time period as possible. This program is open to all ages and experience levels; we will utilize the iNaturalist app to assist us, so you don’t have to be an expert. Spend a day out in nature and help us better understand our local habitats!  
  
*This is a free program, but registration is required. Registration opens 7/22
