Subject: Re: Red Wolves From: badger man posted Sat, Sep 12 2009, 8:48pm  This debate could be very important to the animals. If the red wolf is proved to be a hybrid or subspecies the government could take away its protection to save money (especially now). There wouldn't be as big of a priority to save red wolves because there are plenty of gray wolves in the Northern states. Many of these "is it a species or not debates" are petty and meaningless but this affects the wolves directly.

But the animals themselves don't care; whether they are species, hybrids, or intergrades never crosses their minds. They just do whatever they have to do, to survive and procreate. It shouldn't come down to splitting hairs, taxonomically, anyhow. Whether they are a hybrid swam - which will eventually speciate - or a species, they bare here, they are unique, and they should be protected.
