Ironically the watsui is the one cow breed that might get an exception since its a hybrid of the taurine and indicus cattle species but yes most domestic breeds will be simplified to their species so domestic cow will probably default to taurine cattle but if you said zebu that would go to indicus.So we wouldn’t do domestics on the main wishlist? While I get some don’t like it, I still think domestics have a spot in Planet Zoo.
Or would it be I can place “domestic cow” in my wishlist, but if I want the Watusi cow I would need to be on the domestics wishlist?
We will do domestics at least the ones that are distinct species maybe some exceptions can be made for those that are subspecies but that is going to be a group decision.
Also what do we feel about hybrids since they do happen how should we split for instance split the watusi cattle or golden crocodile.
That is currently the largest problem with domestics on the meta wishlist is that all the breeds split the vote but most would be happy with any (not insane) breed which made then seem alot less desired than they actually were.I mean I understand why, but wouldn’t that also limit people’s lists? Granted, subspecies are also a tough situation so I understand it.
A domestic chicken could be one of hundreds of breeds, so individually bringing each choice down lower on the list.
brown bears and tiger species status arent taxonomically in question dingos are heavily debated the asm marks it as a domestic dog currently planet zoo marks it as a gray wolf and there is now researchers saying there may be sufficient evidence to split it from both so unlike bears or tiger wherever we put it it will cause debates.Dingo gets exemption but we can't vote for brown bears or tigers, wow that's going to upset a lot of people.
If we find other cases of species status in question they may also get exceptions based on the strength of the separate species argument.
