Funny how Canadians don’t want to be called “American”, Mexicans don’t want to be called “American”, but everyone from outside the area INSISTS that it’s an appropriate name for them. Even the commenter above called you a “US person”, the only other time I’ve seen that was in legislation about immigration, never as a demonym.

Not exclusively, no. It usually means the US, but it’s far from exclusive. Especially when it comes to species names, the assumption is absurd.
Incorrect
There’s also a European Eagle.
Found the US person.
