Become a Citizen Scientist – Protect Nature Challenge

Citizen science is a great way to explore the natural world all around you and share your findings with Canada’s top researchers.

Report your sightings of birds, bees, butterflies, bats, sharks, whales, worms, frogs, invasive species or species at risk.

Test water. Tag a tree. Count fish. Report ice conditions. Observe weather.

Visit the Citizen Science Portal to find projects that fit your interests.

Let’s do this together

Share these challenges with your friends and family and show us what you are doing by tagging us in your social media messages and by using the hashtag #ProtectNature.

We’re on Instagram @canenvironment, Facebook @EnvironmentandClimateChange and Twitter @environmentca.
