iNaturalist
Community science helps the Thicket of Diversity broaden observations and connect volunteers with researchers. iNaturalist can be used to document plants, animals, fungi, and other organisms observed in the Big Thicket region. Observations with photos, dates, and locations can help researchers notice patterns and identify species needing closer study.
Volunteer Opportunities
Volunteers can support field days, species observations, data review, education and outreach, and partner research projects. To ask about current opportunities, contact the Thicket of Diversity team through the Big Thicket Association.
