All in all, not bad going considering I have yet to visit many UK collections this year and have seen very few marsupials and felids
a pity that rays were not included alongside sharks on the grounds people usually can't be bothered to work out what they have seen, as the number of ray taxa I have seen this year would have pushed me close to 150!
:
but duly noted!
