Transforms

These are the transfomations I applied to the data (along with some manual picking out.)

To get animals-unfiltered.txt from the source file:

<SOURCE sed -E "s|,.+$||; s|[^-]+-\S||" | sort | uniq | grep -Fv unidentified | grep -Fv . | grep -ve " .*us$" -e " .*is$" -e "^[a-z]" -e "Western" -e "Southern" -e "Northern" -e "Eastern" -e "^$"

From txt to json:

<FILE.txt awk -F@ 'BEGIN { print "[" } { print "  \""$1"\"," }' | sed '$ s/,$/\n]/'
