ChrisErica, I agree. Like I said earlier, the characteristics used to identify and separate "glades" from yellows back in the day are probably outdated and just not applicable based on the changes of the environment in the Everglades today and access to once isolated populations from more mainland type individuals. I think the whole Glades as a separate subspecies issue has been argued in the past, with many feeling it is just a more orange color phase of yellow rat. That makes sense to me and captive breeding has kept this phase alive and well, similar to Okeetee corns.
