@Jennifer Hammock: Some of the Wiki entries do have brief sections on captive care, and I certainly wouldn't recommend adding anything terribly detailed, but I think it might be a nice blank to fill in. I have started a collection of species kept as exotic pets and will be doing what I can to fill in information (sooooo many of them are completely blank), just want to make sure the information I provide is worthy. :)

@Bart C.: We desperately need to refresh our content from BOLD but they are not responding and so far the process is manual. I will copy your comment here: http://eol.org/collections/26028/newsfeed so that they will see that users are asking.

@Tanya Higgins: Hi, Tanya! We certainly don't have much of that kind of information- it hasn't been our emphasis so far. I think Captive care info could go comfortably in the Notes chapter. (You can add a subtitle to any text object, to clarify the topic.) Thoughts on this, anyone from the zoo, aquarist or horticultural communities?

Tanya Higgins commented on "EOL Discussion Group":
Would it be appropriate to add a "Captive Care" section to those species often kept as exotic pets? Also, would it be appropriate to list the various "morphs" obtained through captive breeding for reptiles like ball pythons and leopard geckos? If so, how might that best be done?

@Cyndy Parr: This is what I was trying to build earlier today http://iphylo.blogspot.co.uk/2012/06/using-zoomable-treemap-to-visualise.html. Partly inspired by a converstaion we had at the "birds of a feather" session at the first iEvoBio, when you talked about being able to visualise database coverage (at least, that's what I recall we talked about!).

@Patrick Leary: Great, thanks for this. I'll look at grabbing a copy of the same CoL version you have. It's a pity CoL have made a mess of their identifiers. The internal ones are unstable across versions, the LSIDs have version-specific suffixes and tend to break.
