He was a strong advocate to include herpetofauna in the Canberra Nature Map.<\/p>\n<p>The Atlas of Life has just launched its new species recording app and platform which is based on the Canberra Nature Map. NatureMapr makes it easy for anyone anywhere to record their sightings of wildlife and nature and help build our Atlas of Life of this region. Geoff will not only describe the amazing reptiles of our region, but also explain how records can help in their conservation.<\/p>\n<p>We will show you how the NatureMapr works and how you can use the app to create your own journal of wildlife.
