Sholdn't this category be splitted - Cetacea to a seperate category? Felagund 12:49, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Category rename?

[edit]

I do believe we should rename this category into "Animal distribution maps" or "Animal range maps." As an ecologist, "habitat map" isn't a widely-used term and is a tad inappropriate compared to the other two. Shrumster 17:57, 19 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, either of the two, although it seems many of the images are called distribution maps so Animal distribution maps may work better. Chris_huhtalk 23:10, 30 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Category description change

[edit]

At the moment, this is described as "Distribution maps of animal habitats." But most of these maps are not maps detailing the location of a particular habitat, but maps of the distribution of the actual animals themselves.

Shouldn't this be described simply as "Distribution maps of animals", or "Maps detailing the geographical distribution of animals".
