Animal Data for Download
NatureServe compiles and maintains extensive data on the animals
of the United States, Canada, and the entire Western Hemisphere. These data
focus on the taxonomy, natural history, distribution, and conservation status
of vertebrates and selected invertebrates. The following downloadable datasets are available here:
Digital
Distribution Maps of the Birds of the Western Hemisphere
Digital
Distribution Maps of the Mammals of the Western Hemisphere
Digital
Distribution Maps of the World's Amphibians
Distribution of Native U.S. Fishes by Watershed
In addition to these downloadable datasets, our NatureServe
Explorer and InfoNatura
websites provide extensive additional information from our central databases
that are searchable by species name, taxonomic group, distribution, and conservation
status. This includes information for all vertebrate
species native to the United States and Canada (except marine fishes), and
for the best-known groups of invertebrates.
State and province-specific data are compiled by our network
of member programs. Many of these datasets are available through our Local
Program Data portal.
