Hi ma3arkka, welcome to Project Noah. Please refer to our FAQs http://www.projectnoah.org/faq and terms http://www.projectnoah.org/terms and ensure that your spottings are completed correctly and in accordance with our rules. For this spotting we need to know if it is captive and if so the name of the establishment holding it. We also need the habitat field completing on all spottings and as much other detail as possible, and the map pin should be in the correct location, not in the middle of a city if this was on a beach!
