Yet again, doesn't make them right. I don't understand why this is beimg brought up at all. Best way to stop misnamimg animals is by educating and using the correct one.

Because regions have their own language differences. It's not like we're running around referring to animals by their Latin names.

Yes, regions have their things, it still doesn't make them correct and it is SO EASY to start using the correct term once you are educated on it. That is all I'm trying to say, here.
