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

    - 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
