Hi guys,
With response to the "koala bear" debate... the quote came from the guy who
submitted the shot. He's from Australia and he calls them bears. I know they are
not bears, they're marsupials, but "koala bear" has always been a well-accepted
term... but if it causes so much debate I'll remove it!!! :)
At the risk of getting in trouble by going off-topic, we have a similar problem with
the Fave Pet Show because people from around the world access the site and may not
know that a pomeranian is a dog whereas a prairie dog is a rodent. In some cases,
we've clarified, in other cases not.. it depends on the length of the text required
and the quality of the shot.
