Just how diverse is nature, and what can we do to help protect it? The tenth Species Conservation Day at the Zoologischer Stadtgarten Karlsruhe is all about the fascinating world of biodiversity and its protection. Numerous institutions and organizations will offer insights into their work and invite visitors to learn more about native and endangered species, their habitats, and specific species conservation projects. A wide range of hands-on activities makes Species Conservation Day an experience for the whole family and for anyone interested in nature and biodiversity.

The State Museum of Natural History in Karlsruhe will also be represented with the Karlsruhe BioBlitz. During the BioBlitz Challenge, visitors can get involved, discover species, and explore local biodiversity. A particularly exciting highlight: the prize is an exclusive meet-and-greet with the capybaras. Anyone who wants to see nature through new eyes and go on a discovery tour of their own shouldn’t miss this day.
