Some of the island forms seem to reproduce at a much smaller size than what is thought 'normal' although these 'dwarf' races have gotten to 'normal' size in captivity.

No one will argue that distinct races or populations do exist and the Cherryhead does seem to be one of those distinct races.

You have to figure that the RF range is huge and the habitats that the inhabit is extremely variable.


>>so my next question is do dwarf redfoots exist at all? are they from another region or is the whole notion a myth? and can cherryheads and regulars coexist?
