City Nature Challenge 2021

The City Nature Challenge is an international effort encouraging people to find and document plants and wildlife in their hometowns all around the globe. From April 30-May 3, 2021, people around the world will document their local nature using iNaturalist in the City Nature Challenge.We are surrounded by nature in our neighborhoods, parks, and even in our downtowns. Knowing what species live near us helps us study and protect them. By participating in the City Nature Challenge, not only do you learn more about your local nature, but you can also make your city a better place – for you and other species!In partnership with the Natural History Museum of Utah and over a dozen other organizations throughout Northern Utah, together we are The Wasatch! Join as we all represent and document all of our wild neighbors! Teamwork makes the dreamwork! The Wasatch is the effort of over a dozen Utah partners all connecting our Northern Utah community with our wild neighbors.Cache County - Stokes Nature CenterSalt Lake County - Natural History Museum of Utah, Tracy Aviary, Utah’s Hogle Zoo, Jordan River Commission, Salt Lake City Public Library System, Red Butte Garden, Utah Open Lands, The Nature Conservancy in UtahSummit County - Swaner Preserve and EcocenterUtah County - Thanksgiving Point, Hutchings MuseumWeber County - Ogden Nature CenterState-wide - U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service
