Download WildLog

WildLog is a software application that is aimed at helping you manage your wildlife sightings. The main focus of the program is to provide a database to manage all your nature based observations. WildLog also allows you to export your observations for processing and analyses by other applications.

WildLog is a versatile application that can help you keep track of what animals you saw while on holiday, your birding life list or even help organise your camera trapping photo collection. The Bulk Import feature makes importing photographs from your camera traps and field trips much easier and less time consuming. WildLog also has built in support to easily share your observations on iNaturalist.
