Message: <blockquote data-quote="Casey K." data-source="post: 135302" data-attributes="member: 1090">Just because people do it doesnt make it right.  Hybridizing takes from the purity of the animal.  It happens in the wild enough but that's nature and there is no stopping it.  We however, as humans, have a responsibility to take care of our planet.  That includes our eco system and everything in between.  As your animal, you should respect it for what it is and not try to alter it in any way.  Of course, opinions are always welcome and no question is a dumb question.  That's how we help each other as a community.  Communication.  Research.  It's nice to know you and i'm glad you chose to join this forum.....but i think i speak for all of us when i say we are not stupid.  We are all quite intelligent in many areas of this hobby in our own way.  We respect the animals we own....we even respect the animals that other people own.  That's why we take hybridization so seriously.  Leave mother nature as is.  <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> (this is my nice side, btw.....my angelic side....the halo is shining)....Please don't make the horns show.</blockquote>
