Federal protection originally was a really good idea, but it has inadvertently encouraged inbreeding. Is it even possible to find indigo breeders who can trace the origins of their animals to "pre-protection" wild caught indigos?
I am starting to formulate a likely scenario of how the dwarfism, kink tails, split ventrals began. It makes sense that an animal with such a large home range would be vulnerable to in-breeding. It just took a few generations.
