#632 Online: What's in the River? Urban Rivers citizen science monitoring of the Chicago River



Presenter

Nick Wesley, Executive Director and Co-Founder


Urban Rivers is a non-profit with the mission of turning our cities waterways into wildlife sanctuaries and is the organization behind the Wild Mile floating park. They presented at Chi Hack Night back in 2015. We’ll hear what they’ve been up to in the last 10 years!

Nick Wesley will discuss Urban Rivers efforts to monitor wildlife in the Chicago River using camera traps and the development of Rangers.UrbanRivers.org to catalogue all of the species observed.
