Request

Current nutria range map seems to be outdated as its source is from 2005. The best modern source I've found is this one: [1]. Maybe 'potential current distribution' can be added in a different colour? Artem.G (talk) 20:48, 12 April 2023 (UTC)

hey, thanks! I've checked the iucn website, and under geographical details there are these countries:

Extant & Introduced (resident) Austria; Belgium; Czechia; Denmark; France (France (mainland)); Germany; Greece (Greece (mainland)); Hungary; Italy (Italy (mainland)); Netherlands; Norway; Poland; Romania; Spain (Spain (mainland)); Sweden; Switzerland; United Kingdom

Extant & Introduced Japan; United States

Can you please add them to the map? Artem.G (talk) 15:17, 15 April 2023 (UTC)

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by adding them or how that could be achieved, as simply adding the countries (without a range) would be misleading at best (probably the reason they are not shown on their map). M.Bitton (talk) 15:22, 15 April 2023 (UTC)

I understand that concern, but current map can is also misleading because it shows the range to be only in South America, while there is a lot of data and observations saying otherwise. I'll try to find another source that gives an introduced range. Artem.G (talk) 16:49, 15 April 2023 (UTC)

One possible way to do it would be to highlight the countries and add a note explaining that it's been introduced there, something like:

  Countries where is has been introduced

Let me know if that works for you. M.Bitton (talk) 17:10, 15 April 2023 (UTC)

Yeah, I think it'll work! The other good source I've found is this article [2], but it's not a good idea to mix sources for a map, so your solution is better. Artem.G (talk) 19:12, 15 April 2023 (UTC)

 Done @Artem.G: Let me know what you think. M.Bitton (talk) 00:29, 16 April 2023 (UTC)

Looks good, thank you! Artem.G (talk) 07:28, 16 April 2023 (UTC)

Current map seems to be outdated, source is dead. This map [3] from the International Crane Foundation from 2019 can be used as a source for update. Thanks! Artem.G (talk) 20:48, 12 April 2023 (UTC)
