You may have already found this link, but in case you didn't or anyone else reading is interested, you should send in an online report to CyberTip (https://report.cybertip.org/ https://report.cybertip.org/), which is the legally-mandated reporting website if you encounter child porn / abuse material. Reports sent there pass through NCMEC and are eventually forwarded on to law enforcement.

Different hotlines may differ in what reports they're willing to take depending on what's banned locally. IWF is legally mandated to take reports on cartoons. NCMEC isn't in theory but they might take it and pass it onto the user's country due to lack of manpower.
