Semjax Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 So I got to thinking and as odd as it may be I started thinking about Cross breeding between different forms of mammals, more specifically the Mammals who are a lot like each other, such as Wolves and Wild cats, and other such animals. The thought then developed into a larger sense, If nature demands to adapt or die, and the Endangered species in the world were forced to adapt, wouldn't you think that nature would give them a way to reproduce? Granted this is just theory and speculation, and half thought out. But I was wanting your opinions on this, also I know that you can cross-breed those of the same species, that's not what I'm talking about =).
Ringer Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 First, wolves and wild cats are two totally different species so they would not be able to breed. Nature has given them a way to reproduce and nature has put evolutionary pressures on them. If they don't have the traits needed to survive they will not survive. Plants actually do cross breed quite readily though. You thought process is faulty because not everything survives and nature doesn't really care, if you don't mind the anthropomorphising, if any animals survive. Nothing is given a way out of extinction by anything but their parents; unless they had a novel mutation of course.
