Biodiversity is shrinking at an alarming rate. We at Burroo are making the first mobile game that makes preserving biodiversity fun and engaging.

We are making one of the few mobile games that parents want their kids to be playing. Join our cause in improving biodiversity and bringing families together one habitat at a time.
