and I am fine with shooting the wolves and bears.....

but if there were tigers there, and they certainly are endangered, I think you gotta find a better way.

Unfortunately, captive tigers in private hands aren't any good for captive breeding programs at zoos. - TWuG Oct 19, 10:14 17
- Really...we're worried that the big-assed tiger with no purebred papers isn't big-assed tiger enough to screw another big-assed tiger? -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 19, 10:16 15
  - Yes. With populations as low as they are for some tiger species, it is absolutely vital to know bloodlines - TWuG Oct 19, 10:23 1
    - Estimated total of all 6 tiger subspecies worldwide is between 3000 and 5100 animals. - TWuG Oct 19, 10:27

    - What kinda tiger is that? Purebred or halfbred? "It's a tiger...not a mudblood, dumbass." - Will Hunting Oct 19, 10:18 11
      - I say, if it looks like enough of a tiger for another tiger to want to jam it, we're cool. - TFox Oct 19, 10:20 3
        
        If you want to save Bengal tigers, it doesn't make a lot of sense to breed them with Sumatran tigers. - Reagen Oct 19, 10:45 1
        
        plus as TWuG said, inbreeding is a huge problem. In breeding programs they do scrupulous genetic studies before breeding any pair. -- nm - loosilu Oct 19, 10:47

      - would anyone really care if the T-Rex was part Allosaurus? - ghouly Oct 19, 10:19 6

        Just imagine a T-Rexceratops with 3 horns on top of it's head. - Will Hunting Oct 19, 10:20 4
        
        Or a T-Rex head on an Allosaurus neck! No one could ever run fast enough. -- nm - TFox Oct 19, 10:21 3
        
        We gotta breed it with something with longer arms. - Will Hunting Oct 19, 10:23 2

- I half breed tiger is better than no tiger at all. - ghouly Oct 19, 10:15
something I learned a few years back: Captive big cats are "generic" and are exempt from the Endangered Species Act. -- (link) - loosilu Oct 19, 10:12 1
