Contribute to scientific research by participating in the Lincoln-Lancaster County City Nature Challenge, a community science event to find and document urban wildlife.
The global challenge is a chance to look for nature in urban areas and learn about the animal and plant life discovered there.
Using the free iNaturalist app, participants photograph nature and upload their observations to the app between April 24 and 27, then help identify observations on the app between April 28 and May 13.
Wildlife can be any wild plant, animal, fungi or other evidence of life, such as scat, fur or tracks. Participants can even document species through their windows.
Visit OutdoorNebraska.gov and search “City Nature Challenge” to learn more.
The City Nature Challenge, launched in 2016 as a competition between two U.S. cities, is now an international competition to document nature and better understand urban biodiversity.
