Great Island Bioblitz

Great Island Bioblitz is a month-long project in November that utilizes iNaturalist, a community-science platform and global biodiversity database. Through community partnerships and self-led events, the project will record the diversity of species found on Vancouver Island and surrounding islands. Bioblitz events like these help communities learn about the life around them while contributing to scientific research and monitoring.
