      Celebrating 50,000 Photos and 13,000 species! Dear community, I forgot to mention this in the weekly newsletter but this week we crossed the spectacular milestone of 50,000 wildlife observations. Perhaps more importantly, the diversity of these sightings is so high as to result in over 13,000 species, found all over the world.<br />
<br />
Thank you for making JungleDragon what it is, our community may be small yet it feels like family to me. And I can ensure you that although I may currently be slow in updating the experience, I am fully committed to bring JD to a new level. <br />
<br />
Keep sharing, keep caring.<br />
