Is the animal living in the wild but part of an unestablished population. This is a term that is used by many US Birders for non-countable exotic species that may be found. Most parrots, and imported geese are good examples.

The pair here stuck together and lazily swam around the same area. In spite of their coloration, I dont think these are goldfish or carp, based off the body shape. UPDATE: Marking as wild since I read you can mark escaped pets as wild on forums. |

*Apparently they're really only soaring migrants, so open 'cold' bodies of water may be difficult obstacles for them. edit: February 2024: I only now see the records in the same area in April/May on ebird. |
