If i were to pose a question to Mr. Stockl it would be in regards to his "pure breeding". I have question that is left unanswered on his site, or at least from what i've read. This question would be as follows: Why is it unacceptable to interbreed sub-specific BC's who share the same geographical locales? In Colombia as well as other areas of S. America BCI's and BCC's have shared territories and i find it difficult , at best, to believe that these animals don't intergrade, or share genetics via copulation. I underrstand the disapproval of BCi's from meso-america being bred to other BC's from certain geographical regions of S. America , sense this would not occur w/out human interference via selective breeding. This being said , i realize it to be a somewhat controversial subject and it isn't meant to be a reflection of any ill-will towards the folks who hold great value or belief in ensuring that BC's maintain diversified genetics without loss to overall sub-specific, locality specific, or morphological representation. I am simply curious as to whether or not there is a decided consensus towards what is , or isn't, acceptable, at least on a sub-specific level.
Thanx,
Alex Loomis
