I need to have a biodiversity survey done..How do I go about it?

Contact either WWF or the ecology department of the nearest university.


The surveys I have read, helped on, or seen done (not a huge amount admittedly) all originated from these sources. I personally wouldn't give it to a private company without the recommendation of one these two.


I really do not know your set of circumstances, but in my experience the job would depend on the land involved.


Either a research assistant comes out, spends an hour and types a single page report. Or someone makes it his career, hires labour and research assistants and retires on the land.


If the x and y on a graph were land size and time respectively. The line isn't at 45 degrees, more like 70 or 80 degrees.


The cost however need only relate to the time of one or a few individuals. Secretly they would do it for free if they didn't need to work to live.

It doesn't hurt to ask

I think we need a bit more information before we can give you an intelligent answer!
Reply:You can use animals and observe them. But it has to be in one environment. If you want to do people, you can just go in a park and say your doing a survey on biodiversity. If not, give away MNM's for each person who does the survey.
