The 8th Annual Whistler BioBlitz! August 23-24, 2014 Organized by the Whistler Naturalists BioBlitzes have a key role to play in uncovering and communicating biodiversity. In just seven BioBlitz weekends – only 168 hours in total – BioBlitz scientists have identified approximately 1,200 species previously undocumented in Whistler! It’s an amazing feat which shows how much is left to learn about the diversity that surrounds us. The 7th annual Whistler BioBlitz 2013 at Alpha Lake Park was a huge success, thanks to the great weather and the quality and quantity of scientists. This year’s BioBlitz attracted 65 of BC’s top scientists and nature educators and included a large contingent from the Royal BC Museum and UBC Biodiversity Museum.
