NatureMapping involves the public in conducting inventories of wildlife. Data is added to a database and used to make management plans. Volunteers record observations of wildlife around their homes and feeders, when hiking, canoeing or doing other wildlife-related activities. In Iowa, amphibians, reptiles, mammals and birds are the focus of current data collection.
Individuals and school groups can participate. To register, contact Jason O’Brien at (515) 294-6440 or jpobrien@iastate.edu or visit extension.iastate.edu/naturemapping.
