The Santa Monica Mountains BioBlitz, presented and sponsored by National Geographic and the National Park Service in collaboration with Santa Monica Mountains Conservancy and California State Parks, took place May 30 and 31, 2008. During the 24-hour species inventory, teams of scientists, naturalists, and volunteers combed more than 150,000 acres (60,700 hectares), observing and recording as many species as possible.
