CORRECTIONS
- Out of the 133 pets I had 6 missing photos, so I used stock images of the correct animal type.
- I typo’d “Colombia” as “Columbia”. My theory is I was thinking of scientist “de Coulomb”. First spotted by Louis Baker, and no doubt soon by many many more people.
- Let me know if you spot any mistakes!
