At the time I observed it it was not cultivated (can a plant be captive?) because I didn’t sow the seed, it arrived there through natural means and it wasn’t “an organism that exists in the time and place it was observed because humans intended it to be then and there.”
idk man, if I saw that I would probably mark it as captive/cultivated and ask the observer (in this case, you) for information, which would then lead me to fix my vote! So, in the end I think we can all agree that context matters. Let’s solve this discussion there; if anyone else would like to chime in or start a different question in this topic please do.
Captive is for animals - pets, exotic pets, farm animals.
Cultivated for plants - nature didn’t put it there, I did (or some person or persons unknown)
That is in iNatese.
I didn’t see the description in the observation, that changes the outlook, obviously. Calling me arrogant is unappreciated and undeserved, I’m trying my best here.
Thanks for the details Diana, much more helpful.
I requested we stop this conversation, and I’m going to enforce that upon myself now as I don’t believe anything else good is coming out of us bickering.
