Biodiversity Research
South Sudan is extraordinarily biodiverse. Help us conserve wildlife in this special and under-studied region by identifying animals in camera trap photos and helping save and protect them. Click through to see the Zooniverse project page
How do I get started? Just go to the Zooniverse Project Page.
How much time will this take? This is a low time commitment. Spend as little or as much time as you like!
How do I expand this narrative arc? If nature or conservation are in your narrative arc, consider building on this interest with one of the following:
Become an Astro-Ecologist! See our post and lean how to help save endangered species using imaging from thermal drones. Join astrophysicists, conservationists, the WWF and Liverpool University in helping develop a system which uses astronomical techniques to automatically find and identify different endangered animals and track down their poachers.
See our post about becoming Nature Activist with The Nature Conservancy. There are many ways to get involved with this organization and they all have different time commitments.
HOT TIP: This is a great little project to kick off or complement a general interest in nature, biodiversity and conservation. Make sure to build on this project with some larger and more time-intensive commitments in these interest areas like getting involved with The Nature Conservancy.
