It’s an obscured endangered species.

Thank you!
I’m new on this. So you mean that iNat automatically assigns the Obscured setting by being endangered so wont appear at all?

I see it appears as Open on the location section.

Not clear for me yet.

For you and people you added to trust list coordinates are shown as true ones, but for everyone else they’re shown as a spot somewhere nearby, projects are using those spots, so they won’t catch this observation (it prevents poachers from finding the real spot by using projects). You can click on details under the map to see it.
