City Nature Challenge L.A. vs S.F.
You did it!!! Thank you!!!
You did it, Los Angeles! Your contributions to the City Nature Challenge L.A. vs S.F. enabled us to come from behind and beat San Francisco!
It was truly a collaborative effort from the entire county of Los Angeles. When we were over 2,000 observations behind, nobody gave up. Instead it seemed that everyone used that as motivation to document more wildlife, and to make as many species identifications as they could. Together, with San Francisco's observations, we contributed almost 20,000 observations to iNaturalist. That is a win for everyone in both cities.
We actually had over 570 citizen scientists submit observations in Los Angeles County (iNat users plus those sending in e-mails and social media posts).
Thanks again to everyone! We are extremely fortunate to have you all living in our community, and participating in our projects. #GoLA #NatureinLA
Sincerely,
