Fauna of California

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I am interested in fauna. I believe, as Californians, it is especially important since they are diverse in our state. My preliminary impression of the article was that it would be detailed.

Evaluate the article
The lead introduces the fauna of California in a concise way that acts as an overview of the overall article. The content is detailed and relevant; it does not address historically underrepresented groups, likely because the article focuses on animals and not anthropology. The article talked about the fauna of California in a very objective tone. The article has a wide variety of sources, mostly academic or educational, and the links of these sources work properly. The article is well structured with detailed, concise descriptions of fauna in different ecologies of California. The article has quite a few images, with captions and proper attributions, to show examples of the fauna in California. However, the images are all displayed always on the right side, perhaps it could be placed in a more visually pleasing way. On the talk page, there was a note about adding external links to the article. Fauna of California is part of the WikiProject Animals and WikiProject California. I think overall, the information of the article was well laid out, but perhaps the layout of images could be smoother.
