Can I skip an image if I'm not sure what kind of animal it is?
Some images may be difficult to categorize because they are blurry, overexposed, or contain only a vague close-up of an animal. Your willingness to make a best guess contributes to a group consensus, so know you're not alone in attempting to identify those challenging photos. Studies show you've got a pretty good chance of guessing the correct species, and providing the option to skip images could leave us with a backlog of unclassified photos. So go ahead and guess!
Are there sample photos to help me practice for challenging images?
Yes, we've provided a collection of sample photos in the FIELD GUIDE to help you provide a "best guess" for challenging, blurry, or mysterious photos.
