Final Journal Post: We Did It!

Thank you everyone for your tremendous participation and support of the first L.A. BioBlitz Challenge. With the project concluding on August 7, we have some final results to share. Over eight weeks, 14,626 observations were made and 29 indicator specieswere identified. The three most observed indicator species were: monarch butterfly, red-tailed hawk, and great blue heron. The crowdsourcing of this data will help serve as a baseline for future research and studies to improve and protect local ecosystems and wildlife habitats in the City of Los Angeles.

Please reflect on and share your experiences to increase awareness about this native biodiversity hotspot. We enjoyed this time together. Thank you again and we hope you will join us next year. #LABioBlitz #LAPLNeiSci
