Obtain a KML file for an existing place

General

Is there a way to obtain a KML file for an existing place, say, this place:

https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?place_id=59956

I’d like to create a custom place based on this existing place.

Thanks in advance,

Tom

Though that place was added before some restrictions were put in place, so you might not be able to add a similar place if it doesn’t meet these criteria:

Must have at least one polygon be under 1 MB (5 MB for site curators), and have an area smaller than the US state of Texas.

Thanks! That helps a lot.
