In 2019, the Waukesha County Park System kicked off the inaugural Conservation in the Parks citizen science programs. The goal was to engage volunteers to become citizen scientists in their communities. The volunteers worked with park staff to help monitor wetlands, birds, small mammals, amphibians, reptiles, dragonflies, and more! The data collected will guide land management decisions for restoration and preservation of parkland.
