City Nature Challenge

Interested in learning more about biodiversity and the natural world? Or do you just want to get outside and enjoy the great outdoors? Here's a great chance.   

Join us on the Loyola campus to participate in the City Nature Challenge. This is an international competition encouraging citizen scientist to help out the scientific community by documenting local wildlife. All observations are uploaded to the Concordia's iNaturalist project, where they can be access by ecology researchers world wide.

Participation is easy. Just dress for the weather, bring a cell phone or digital camera and join us for a walk around campus to photograph what we find. We will be joined by local wildlife experts and biology faculty who will help us to find and identify interesting species.

In the event of bad weather, this event will be canceled.
