[API-users] Remove/filter by data from botanical gardens?

[Scott Chamberlain]

Hmmm...I don't see establishmentMeans anywhere in the returned data from
the /occurrence . I do see documentation on it, endpoint
https://code.google.com/p/darwincore/wiki/Occurrence#establishmentMeans,
but is it included in data output anywhere? Maybe called something else?
