Seals Wildbook
What happened?
A student working with submitting 2026 data to Wildbook noticed, that when submitting new encounter, even if you set the species to Pusa hispida saimensis, it changes to Pusa hispida after the encounter is ready. Same thing happened to me when I submitted couple missing encounters from 2024. It seems, that this has happened only after 20th of August (if I search Pusa hispida encounters). There was one older encounter, but I assume that is a mistake when submitted.
*Saimaa ringed seal is now actually recognized as its own species, Pusa saimensis (The Society for Marine Mammalogy), and is no longer considered as a subspecies. That could be changed in Wildbook at some point if it is possible
