Participate in Citizen Science with the Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden from Home!
​The Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden needs your help to collect information on which plants in our region pollinators are visiting! When you are outside walking or playing, pay attention to where you observe pollinators – what is a plant that attracts pollinators? Take a picture of the plant and observe what pollinators visit it over a few days and share your findings on our Plant for Pollinators Challenge Citizen Science Mission on Project Noah! Project Noah is an award-winning social media site that enables students, community members, and professional scientists to create and share nature journals, collect important ecological data, contribute to global research, and help preserve biodiversity. ​LEARN MORE

​Track Monarch Butterfly Migration 2021
Report your sightings each fall and spring as the monarchs travel to and from Mexico. Track migration on real-time migration maps and follow the migration news. Fall migration extends from August to November; spring migration from March to June. Find out what to report each spring and fall. Scientists rely on the help of citizen scientists to understand the monarch’s conservation needs. Your observations make a valuable contribution — and help tell the dramatic story of the monarch’s journey to Mexico. LEARN MORE
