Lockdown Wildlife Tracker

Observing wildlife from your homes during the lockdown?!

In this time of the COVID-19 quarantine, where we humans are locked inside our homes, there are more and more reports of wildlife exploring human-dominated areas or 'rewilding' urban areas. However, these records are stray and just circulated as Whatsapp stories for now! We, a group of scientists at the Wildlife Institute of India, thought to collect this interesting data in an organized manner to help visualize interesting patterns of wildlife habitat use that are unfolding during this period! YOU can help us in this Citizen Science initiative by reporting your sightings from your homes and be a part of a cool science experiment!

Lockdown Wildlife Tracker is an app which makes it easy to record wildlife from the comfort of your home! These sightings can be reported real-time as well as at any later period - but only till the quarantine lasts! What's more... You can even upload photos of your sightings to the app! This free app makes it convenient to keep track of what you see, while making your data openly available for scientific research, education, and conservation.

Here's your chance to become a scientist, become an Animal Tracker!
