I agree, I think its a bit like Las Vegas, What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas. What happens in captivity, stays in captivity.

Personally, I do keep more hybrids then pure species(about to change) But I have thousands of Local specific animals in my field studies. I work in the field with herps and they are all or nearly all pure. hahahahahahahahaha.

What is of interest is what makes US tick. I know what two animals from the same local do. Been breeding them for 45 years. What I do not know is what hybrid possibilities are. Consider, historically, these animals(colubrids) were from a common ancestor. So what they are now, is a product of what they were before. And that includes natural hybridization.

Consider, even now, many consider hybrids to all be mules, hmmmmmmmmmmm that worked with horses and donkies, but was not true with other species.

Scientifically, hybrids are far more interesting then local specific animals. But thats a horse of a different color. Cheers
