A look at Monarch Butterflies in NYC, their population, migration patterns, and proposals to protect them
Our findings suggest that a reduction in human interaction with other organisms, even those that have evolved to live alongside humans, may allow those organisms to better thrive.
Does the urban nature of cities affect the way our neighborhood squirrels behave? That is the question that we want to answer through this project through both research from articles as well as collected data on our own from 4 distinct parks.
We test theory-of-mind behavior in bonobos by using animated videos featuring an avatar bonobo and a snake to simulate danger.

In our study, we choose to analyze the three main types of methods that scientists typically deal with invasive species, specifically focusing on the spotted Lantern fly.
The poster describes the effects invasive species have on an ecosystem, in particular, the impact the invasive red-eared sliders have on New York City.
Located in Brooklyn, New York, Prospect Park spans 526 acres. We examined four of the most invasive plant species and the affected native species in Prospect Park. We focused on each plant’s role and how the ecosystem is affected from the prevalence of invasive plant species. We also analyzed an in-progress solution issued by Prospect Park in recent years to target these invasive species.
Dive into our bee-utiful adventure! Buzzing through New York City and Nassau County, we discovered that the concrete jungle’s got more bee species than the suburban scene! Forget what you thought about urban life – bees are giving the suburbs a run for their honey!
Discover the impacts of the invasive Emerald Ash Beetle on Ash Trees in New York. These bright green beetles are tiny but have a massive impact on the delicate ecosystem of New York.
