Brain fried...
Oct. 20th, 2008 10:56 pm...because, well, it *has* been a stupidly long day, but I have to post this:
you sure on that - I thought wildcats were native (at least in some form)?
Not really, that's why I'm asking. Rabbits are 'native' but they were introduced by the romans. If the Scottish wildcat's decendents inhabited the UK when it was still attached to the continent then we can say that they're native. If not they must either be bloomin' good swimmers or have been brought over the Channel/acorss the North Sea by man.
...The mental image of the swimming cats made me howl with laughter, then I read this:
If not, how did they get here?
Paris, Gare du Nord 07:20 to St Pancras
...The keyboard was a casualty....
And to sum it up:
The debate was about Scottish Wildcats interbreeding with domestic cats, and how - in the eyes of the poster - we should *ban* domestic cats... Debate happening on a photography forum. I rest my case. :)
