A monumental effort is underway in Florida to sift through millions of wildlife photos captured by trail cameras across the southern US state, in a bid to help conservationists manage and protect native ecosystems.
Launched on May 26, the Florida Wildlife Watch is a “citizen science” project organized by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC). It is encouraging the public to help biologists identify and classify animals snapped on trail cameras across six million acres of Wildlife Management Areas.
