See <a href="http://post.queensu.ca/~forsdyke/haldane1.htm#Haldane's%20Rule1" rel="nofollow">here</a>. A lot of the current literature re: Haldane has to do with speciation. Since the hybrid can mate with a parental species and produce offspring, it might not be considered a separate species yet.Kamelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15548259062576527751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14815894.post-28717829758683356412010-05-05T19:09:07.387-04:002010-05-05T19:09:07.387-04:00Does the existence of the pozzly bear eliminate th...Does the existence of the pozzly bear eliminate the need for conservation, if the genes of the pozzly mix with the grizzly sufficiently so that they are preserved and the polar bear niche (what is left of it) is filled by the grizzly and pozzly?<br />If not, isn't that a bit racist? (I thought that they were different species but I guess Haldane would argue otherwise). Would you argue that pure white bears are better?<br />On a side note, a bear ravaged my garbage just last night. The garbage container said that it was 'animal proof'. Granted it had a picture of a raccoon on it, not a bear.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11878582460269426199noreply@blogger.com
