How do I choose a citizen science project?

Choosing a citizen science project depends on your interests, skills, and the time you can commit. What topics are you passionate about?

I'm really interested in wildlife conservation.

Great! You might consider projects that involve bird watching, tracking animal migrations, or monitoring local ecosystems. Do you have a preference for fieldwork or online activities?

I prefer fieldwork. Any specific projects you recommend?

You could look into the Audubon Society's bird count or the Monarch Watch program, which focuses on tracking monarch butterfly populations. Would you like more details on either?

Yes, please tell me more about the Monarch Watch program.

Monarch Watch involves tagging and tracking monarch butterflies during their migration. You can participate by tagging butterflies and reporting your findings. It's a great way to contribute to conservation efforts!
