Have you ever wished you could be a research scientist helping to conserve our wildlife, but you don't have a formal degree or any scientific training? At the University of Cape Town's Animal Demography Unit (ADU) there is a menagerie of projects to choose from, providing citizen scientists (or volunteers) the opportunity to get outdoors and collect valuable data for science and conservation. It's easy to become involved and it's a lot of fun. On the left is a list of some of the various citizen science, or volunteer projects at the ADU.
