Thank you for choosing to complete this survey about meanginful nature experiences and profound encounters with wildlife.

This survey will take you about 15 minutes to complete. The duration will vary depending on the level of detail of some of your answers...and naturally we appreciate a bit of detail ! Most questions give you the option to choose from multiple answers which speeds-up the survey. But please do take the time to answer the written questions - as that is where we can learn the most.

The information from this survey is being used to support PhD research on meaningful nature experiences currently being undertaken in South Africa through Stellenbosch University and and funded by the Centre for Invasion Biology and supported by the TsamaHUB. eyes4earth is an initiative of the EarthCollective network. Though the results, we aim to inform public awareness strategies, conservation management and experiential nature education strategies.
