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.

Interesting, but she was captive born and there really hasn't been any success of captive tigers having a good track history in the wild.
It would also need many, many litters to actually make any difference in the gene pool. I also think one sub species would become much dominate and since she may have only been half and she would only breed with pure bengals, I would assume the siberian gene would not make much of a difference over generations.
But I am not a genetist by any means, just a guess.
