What went down: There is nature all around us, even in our cities! Started in 2016 as a competition between San Francisco and Los Angeles, the City Nature Challenge (CNC) has grown into an international event, motivating people around the world to find and document wildlife in their cities. Run by the Community Science teams at the California Academy of Sciences and the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County, the CNC is an annual four-day global bioblitz at the end of April, where cities are in a collaboration-meets-friendly-competition to see not only what can be accomplished when we all work toward a common goal, but also which city can gather the most observations of nature, find the most species, and engage the most people in the event.
SNHU community members were invited to make and share observations of nature in their neighborhood, anytime between April 29 and May 2. Observations will be uploaded and identified May 3-8, with results announced May 9, 2022. Learn more on the City Nature Challenge website.
