Field notes
The generator applies filters before drawing uniformly from its eligible catalogue, rather than implying a sample of real-world animal populations. The page identifies a 2026-08-26-catalogue.5 dataset version and distinguishes species from breeds, extinct animals, common labels, and fictional creatures. Taxonomic entries link to GBIF Backbone records under CC BY 4.0; the page says the first 150 entries include localised common names while the remaining 850 use scientific names.
