Undomesticated animals and such....does this include insects, like bee's, flies, Dragon Flies, etc?

Prolly not going to score too well based on some other threads. :)

I would say definitely... but as blemt says it may score less due to overshooting...

Challenge says "mammals, birds, reptiles and amphibians". Don't know if insects would qualify under that description. And the voters can get pretty picky under some circumstances...

Maybe this link will help
What is Wildlife?

I don't think "insects" are on topic... The description says: "mammals, birds, reptiles and amphibians ". Insects are not any of these, I don't think. I'm going to score low for all insects. :)

problem is - I didn't want to say what I was thinking of using because if others don't have it in the challenge, then It will be obvious it's mine. But if I shouldn't use it anyway, then it doesn't matter I guess.

Butterflies? Are they wildlife, or are they just common insects?

Yes I think so -see link below:

No. The challenge description is very specific about what is to be considered 'wildlife'. As quoted above from the description, '"wildlife" should be considered non-domesticated mammals, birds, reptiles and amphibians living in a natural environment.'

It does not matter what other references consider wildlife, the definition to be used is in the challenge description.

This is a moot point. If you have read the challenge description then you know what is required.
