Citizen scientist in Kenya: two weeks with Biosphere Expeditions
What’s a volunteer “citizen science” expedition really like? In Kenya’s Enonkishu (Mara-Serengeti), you’ll train on data collection, drive/foot transects, set camera traps, monitor waterholes, meet Maasai communities—and log real results (e.g., 16,700+ animals recorded).
