Indianapolis is joining the global City Nature Challenge from April 24 to 27. Help document our city’s wild plants and animals. You can do science by contributing to a global database during your coffee break or school carpool line. Whether you have 5 minutes or 5 hours, your observations count! Just snap a photo or collect a recording of a wild animal or insect and upload it to iNaturalist. Download the iNaturalist app for free and join the project.
