There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Instead of correcting another user with your opinion as you did in post #1,813, "HB and Ginger where not littermates, Ginger and White Face where prob, based of face similarity," you should preface your statement with "in my opinion" or "I think." You are top contributor and well-respected member of the forum. Newer users will hold your posts in higher regard (speaking from personal experience. I've learned a lot about different prides and coalitions from senior members such as yourself). If new users don't know anything about genetics, then they could accept what you say as fact when it is just speculation.
Ok, so its my opinion that HB and Ginger where not littermates, based of that Ginger looks more similar to WhiteFace, and he looks to be a bit older then HB.
Also, face structure analysis = opinion only is what I disagree, in some cases its very strong, 100% evidence, who sired who.
Here is an example, HB and SlitNose :

And here are 2/3 their fathers :
*This image is copyright of its original author
*This image is copyright of its original author
Its clear who sired who, to the point that its not "opinion" and speculation , yet pretty much fact.
And I can find many many more examples of it, but ofc, in some cases we cant determinante who sired who based of looks.
