When I read this, I was shocked, after all, this suggest that human intervention on tiger DNA goes far beyond modern days. The case of Tara and the Amur genes in the Indian reserve was nothing new, according with this data.
The author suggest that the huge size of the largest Amur tiger is not particular of this race but a result of the mix of Amur and Bengal genes. [img]images/smilies/dodgy.gif[/img]
How reliable is this statement? I don't know, but the author quotes Yankovsky in this issue. What do you think guys?
