WHAT WILL YOU CONTRIBUTE AS A CITIZEN SCIENTIST? Our guests in South Georgia will have a real chance to contribute to the scientific understanding of the region. Assisted by a naturalist, you may join a BioBlitz to collect data. Simply by spotting and photographing flora and fauna, you can help record and identify every living plant and animal at key sites. This information will directly inform the management of invasive species by the South Georgia Heritage Trust as they seek to preserve this iconic ecosystem.
