A note to all the white tiger furries
18 years ago
General
Dear white tiger furries,
Do you realize that white tigers are actually just freaks of the animal kingdom? White tigers are NOT albinos (albinos have absolutely no stripes or hint of stripes), they're actually just inbred orange tigers. Some orange tigers have the recessive gene that would lead to white tigers, and when you inbreed two orange tigers with the recessive gene, you end up with lighter colored tigers. Sometimes the lighter colored tigers are pure white, other times they are a golden tiger. Ever since humans found white tigers, they've been inbreeding them even more to produce more "beautiful" white tigers for magic shows and novelty reasons. After so many generations of inbreeding...well...we all know what happens (just look at royal families throughout history).
So if you're a white tiger furry, what does that say about yourself? YA INBRED HICK!!
Seriously though, look it up. Genetics is crazy stuff to read on a lonely Saturday night.
and it's not like German shepherds are any better. How could anyone find AKC German shepherds http://www.best-dog-photos.com/imag.....rd-Anatomy.jpg beautiful? Jeezeus, is it too much to have a dog that can actually preform the task that it was originally bred to do? I'd like one normal looking dog, please.
Ok, I'm done ranting.

stupid ligers.
There are over a hundred registered breeds, and probably countless in-between mixed types... and despite the variety, they all look very similar, and not much different than the barbs and przwalskys and such from which they originated. ...i mean, compared to dog breeds and cat breeds who have so many freaks among them...
Horses win. at least i think. lol.
if that made sense.
And horses really do differ a lot more than you realize. I've seen some really freak arabian horses with really badly dished faces that I swear made the horse have breathing problems. The scary thing is, horse breeders consider it "beautiful". And wild horses have come a long ways from being the size of a house cat and having four toes.
Hmmm, maybe if i was a dog person instead of a horse person i'd see it differently, but what i've said seems reasonable...
and you are very correct.
though i couldn't claim not to be inbred, considering my sister is my mother; <.< but we're gods so it doesn't really matter. genetics are for mortals. ^_^
I'm totally on an Egyption art kick this week. Your comment is well timed :P
ohh, and an egyptian art kick huh.. maybe i could talk my way into getting some free art? *makes pretend grabby hands* hehe, nahh. i'm just joking. =3
I'd like to see Aviva drawn with Egyptian garb.
