It is mind-boggling to think about the diversity of life here on Earth. There are 1.8 million species known to scientists!
These species fall into several different categories, of course. For example, there are plants, animals, bacteria and viruses.
The Encyclopedia of Life has set an ambitious goal. It aims to provide information on all 1.8 million species.
As you would expect, the encyclopedia contains some strange and amazing species. You’ll have fun browsing the pages. Or, get down to business by searching by name.
You’ll find a fair amount of information on each species. There are also links to sites where you can learn more.
This site is fascinating. It’s also a valuable asset for students and teachers. And, if you’d like to help with the site, you can. Just visit its Help Build EOL page for more information!
