More Than 800 Species and Counting at This Year’s BioBlitz
Some 150 scientists, 600 volunteers, and 2,000 students made their way to Saguaro National Park recently to identify and count all the organisms they could find, from the tiniest bugs in the soil to the towering cacti that give the park its name, for the 2011 BioBlitz.
