After two years of success with an online “crowdsourcing” effort to help track giraffes in Kenya, San Diego Zoo Global is launching a new citizen science program in Southern California—inviting the public to help save an important bird species in San Diego County by classifying photos online.

A huge celebration took place at UCLA Mattel Children’s Hospital earlier today (March 7, 2019), complete with San Diego Zoo Safari Park animals—including a tamandua, a sloth, and a kinkajou—and a 15-foot-long lion puppet, and flamingo and giraffe puppets from the San Diego Zoo!
