It’s a wild, wild weekend in BC, September 17th and 18th. That’s the weekend that WildSafeBC is celebrating the great diversity of wildlife we have in the province while focusing on ways to “keep wildlife wild and communities safe.”
One way to celebrate the BC Goes Wild weekend is to participate in our wildlife count competition. The idea is simple: see, identify and record as much wildlife as you can in BC in a 48 hour period.
- Contest runs from 00:00 a.m. Saturday, September 17th to 24:00 (p.m.) Sunday, September 18th, 2016
- All wildlife counted must be free-ranging (not captive)
- Species can be seen or heard
- Use of camera traps is permitted but only images captured and seen within the contest time are allowed.
- All laws must be adhered to in seeking out your species.
- Due to the difference in difficulty of finding different types of wildlife there are points awarded as follows for species in these different categories seen and identified:
a. Mammals 25
b. Birds 5
c. Reptiles 50
d. Amphibians 50
e. Fish 35
f. Invertebrates 5
- Individual and Team categories for overall winner. (Teams can have up to ten members)
- Winners in each of the 6 wildlife categories will be chosen.
WildSafeBC is a program of the BC Conservation Foundation and it serves to reduce human-wildlife conflict through education, innovation and cooperation. www.wildsafebc.com
