ZSL Instant Wild

ZSL’s Instant Wild app empowers you to take part in vital conservation work, bringing you LIVE images and videos from amazing locations all around the world. By identifying the animals in each image, you are contributing to conservation and making a positive impact on the future for wildlife.

This is the next generation of Instant Wild, which mobilises people power to scale up important animal monitoring work, helping scientists to protect wildlife and secure a richer biodiversity for all!

How it works:
Motion triggered cameras are a crucial tool for monitoring animal populations and movements, and this information allows us to develop methods for conserving them. As an animal moves past one of our Instant Wild cameras it will trigger, taking a photo which is immediately sent back to the app in real time for identification by you. Identifying thousands of images takes time but with your help we can identify even more species and help to protect them.

You don’t need any qualifications or special expertise to take part – lots of help is provided to make sure you make the right identification – simply sign up and start tagging the animals in the images.

Your involvement will not only contribute to conservation, making you part of our ZSL community, you’ll also get a window into the some of the world’s wildest places.

Founded in 1826, ZSL is a global conservation charity with a mission to conserve the planet's wildlife and their habitats. With two Zoos, a renowned Institute of Zoology and over 50 conservation projects worldwide, ZSL uses ground-breaking science to fuel life-changing conservation.

Is this app actually used anymore by scientists? Unless I'm using it incorrectly it seems that most images are years old. I know these images can still be relevant just wondering if projects will upload regularly Room for improvement: - Highlight those images tagged - Stop the jumping from project to project when tagging - Add a skip button - Potentially allow public to add the own projects (with approval from ZSL)

Love the app and the idea. Just a few small. Improvements, I'd love a chance to change what I've spotted. Sometimes you see it as yiu submit. Sometimes you know you've made a mistake just after. Please let us make one change. Plus please stop showing us the same picture over and over, it gets annoying. Other. Than that perfect
