Hi Jess,

Those little red blips were an idea our web designers had for showing you where that creature or subject is found on the map. And the size of the blips means how big an area that thing covers. If you change pictures on the bottom you will see that the blips change for each picture.

We have a different idea for this that we will be trying in the future.

Thanks for the great question,
