Hi zoo-fans,
I am a collector of bovids, means I try to get as many sightings with photos of bovid taxa as possible. I started 3 years ago, now I am at number 109 with taxa I have seen alive. Beside that I collect also fossil taxa and rare stuffed specimens. For now I would start with my list of lifers i have seen. Those with stars were seen also/only in the wild. I am interested how your list would look like!
