Join us! Massey University’s first BioBlitz

Massey University

Calling all biodiversity and conservation enthusiasts in Tāmaki Makaurau! We’re hosting our first BioBlitz at our Ōtehā campus on Saturday 4 March.

The goal of a BioBlitz is to identify and record as many species of plants and animals as possible within an assigned timeframe. The event will provide an exciting opportunity for the community to come together and learn more about the biodiversity of the significant ecological bush area that backs onto our Auckland campus.

The event runs from 8am to 10pm, with the meeting point at the Sir Neil Waters lecture theatre. The day will include guided walks through the bush, including a night walk in the evening, talks by science experts around collecting and interpreting the results of the environmental DNA (eDNA) captured and food trucks, along with face painting and bouncy castles on campus for the tamariki.
