Tagged individual has notable limp. For the sake of a bit of speculative fun I can see a very hazy '93' when I zoom in on my computer, but I could be completely wrong....

but https://canberra.naturemapr.org/Community/Sightings/Details/3768785 with geolocator looks like it could be P3 or P5.
I'm just following up which ones had geolocators - my records suggest P0, 99, 98, 97, and 96

This one is not P3, P5, or 93, as they all have geolocators. We'll have to await another photo, but exciting nonetheless. Who's up for the challenge?!
