Inbreeding is a continual breeding of breeding of individuals with similar characteristics.Inbreeding
is used to help ensure that the characteristics that make each breed conserved. There is a bad side of inbreeding too, there
is a chance that a cross between two people or animals will bring together two recessive alleles which would cause a genetic
defect. Interbreeding weakens the gene pool. I do not think that we should interbreed because yes it has a good side... but
look at the bad side it can change a person or animal's life as long as they live!!! Would you like to go around with a dog
with like joint deformities, or a blind dog all because you inbreeded? You just messed that animal's life up, and it was not
necessary! Female lions (or Leopards, they are int the same family) tend to live together in a pride with aunts,
mothers,daughters, sisters, half-sisters. On the other hand males are also related they live with brothers, half- brothers, fathers, uncles in their own
little pride. Occaisionaly
interbreeeding in big cats does happen with brother and sister, or parent and offspring but so rarely that the gene pool can
cope easily.
