City Nature Challenge

Join Audubon Mid-Atlantic, The Discovery Center, and the rest of Philadelphia for the Annual City Nature Challenge!

Started in 2016 as a competition between Los Angeles and San Francisco, the City Nature Challenge (CNC) has grown into an international event, motivating people around the world to find and document wildlife in their own cities. Run by the Community Science teams at the California Academy of Sciences and the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County (NHM), the CNC is an annual four-day global bioblitz at the end of April, where cities are in a collaboration-meets-friendly-competition to see what can be accomplished when we all work toward a common goal.

We'll have WiFi available to download iNaturalist, and educators on-site to help navigate the space and app. We will also be monitoring, in real-time, the results of the competition as they roll in!
