What is the 2008 GGNRA Endangered Species Big Year?
The 2008 GGNRA Endangered Species Big Year is similar to other big year competitions, but it is unique in several ways. First, it focuses only on endangered species. Second, it expands the big year beyond birds to all endangered flora and fauna. Third, in this big year, participants not only compete to see the most species, but also to complete actions that help the species recover. Fourth, the geographic area of focus is the Golden Gate National Recreation Area, our nation’s great urban national park experiment.
