The following table and chart shows visitors to ZooChat for the month of April based on location. This includes all users - not just members.

We've actually seen significant growth in the number of users visiting the site each month over the past year.
If you plot all visits on a map, there's very few countries that have not had at least one visitor to the site:

... of course, this is rather meaningless in the scheme of things - it only takes one visit from a country to make it appear on the map, it's not as if they have to have signed up to the site or posted or anything.
I am pretty sure Ituri is in Idaho (unless he has recently moved).
YepHe started sending them animals in the 1980s. He also sent some to USSR countries back then.

No he is in Wichita. Has been for several yearsI am pretty sure Ituri is in Idaho (unless he has recently moved).
No he is in Wichita. Has been for several years
But his profile says he is in Phoenix...
Interesting how the visitors is slightly different to the number of members from these places, even though one would have thought that it would correlate quite closely to members.
Hey the USA beat the UK for once (number of active users)! As for the great Ituri debate, yes he is from Phoenix, Arizona and then moved to Idaho (Boise I believe) and that is where I last tracked him but apparently he has moved on from there.
Is it Kansas or OurKansasOkay, I'll put this all to rest.
I have lived in Phoenix as well as Boise (and a couple other places), but I currently reside in Kansas.

And here is the USA map.

Pretty good coverage overall, with the only states missing being Idaho, Mississippi, North and South Dakota, West Virginia, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine. Only Idaho was really surprising out of these. The harder ones to find were residents of Hawai'i, South Carolina, Oregon and Rhode Island.
Any requests?

Chile seems to have been missed, although admittedly the only member I know of from there is quite new.Updated map - notable additions include Panama (missed off the last one), Cote D'Ivoire, Montenegro and Vietnam

Impressive nonetheless - hopefully over the next few years (decades?) as South American and African zoos in particular develop in size and quality, we may well have a few more countries to add.
Please tell me if I have missed any, input very welcome.

Would it be possible to make a map of what areas of the UK members are from? Something similar to the US states one
