If there is such a lack of genetic diversity in our captive Brazilian amarali populations, does it make sense to inbreed these animals generation after generation? Where are we going with this project? Seems like a dead end effort unless fresh blood can be imported... which isn't going to happen anytime soon. Can someone please explain this to me? Don't get me wrong, I'm not knocking those who breed these animals... I love them too, but after a few more generations these lines will be so inbred it's not even funny. Am I wrong?
