Character species reminder

Written by Troll Berserker :



 

Hello, Lion King Source

After having to deactivate some characters, we decided to post a small reminder about character species on TLKS.

* Extinct species (like Barbary or Cape lions) are not allowed.

* Tigers and cougars are not allowed. Please do a little reseach on your characters. Tigers live only in Asia and cougars inhabit only both Americas. Tigers, cougars and their hybrids are not allowed unless they are reasonably explained.

And a little reminder about realistic/unrealistic tag. Dark brown lions are allowed, but such colour don't occur in real lions and those characters should be tagged as unrealistic.

Actually, Barbary lions are only extinct in the wild. There are still some in captivity. There are also currently what is believed to be Cape Lions that were sent to South Africa from Russia for breeding purposes. In fact, I am a firm believer that the cape lion is not a subspecies of lion, but rather a southern population of the Transvaal lion which are still very much alive.

As you said we don't know what time the movie takes place exactly. You can't say it's modern times but you can't say it's 100 or 200 years ago neither. That's why.
Or you can always take Timon&Pumbaa that takes place in modern times.

The rules are fair, but I agree with Somes, that we don't know in what kind of century the sequel happens, and how nowadays, there are tours in Africa, biologists doing wildlife research, hunters, and not to mention the Animal Planet and National Geographic. So the movie story must happen before man start interacting with wildlife.

Meh.
Why can't extinct species of lions be allowed? We don't really know what century TLK occurred, and it could have happened when currently extinct lions existed.

Adûnaphel- Serval x Caracal hybrids DO exist (Known as Servicals), although they're very rare and are only found in captivity. I'd think that if you'd be able to make a character that's a Servical, it would have to once been in captivity, but released into the wild.

@Happystool: A cheetah cannot breed with a lion or a leopard. Like, they have to be in the same family. Cheetahs are not in the Panthera family, so cannot breed with anything in the Panthera family. Like how you can cross dogs and wolfs, but not dogs and foxes. Still canines, but not in the same family. If that makes sense?

They are technicaly allowed, but they require a little reseach again like if the species even able to produce offspring or if is there a posibility for those hybrids to be fertile (if you want them to have cubs).
Hybrids almost never occur in wild so please give them reasons to be. After all, it's a quite realistic movie.

What about hybrids of big cats that live in Africa. Like Leopards and Lions? Are they allowed? While they may not happen in the wild (well haven't been documented at least), they exist.

Or what about Several/Caracal hybrids?
