Merge suggestion[edit]

This article is so short that it needs to be either expanded or merged with Genetic admixture. Talking image (talk) 00:52, 6 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

African lions[edit]

BhagyaMani You were the one who used the word 'admixture' (in the context of genetics) for lions in the Horn of Africa or Northeast Africa in the first place, so now why did you contradict your earlier statement in this article, even though you agreed that there is genetic admixture in this article, at almost the same time?

1. As already briefly explained in my edit summary, this is apparently not a good example to explain the concept of genetic admixture, as the addition and ref raised such a controversy and reverts. 2. I have nothing to do with this wiki article on Northeast African lion, but consider it redundant. 3. Genetic admixture affects a few individuals in a population, but not necessarily the whole population in a given area; the fact that a handful of samples with P. l. leo haplotypes were found in lion samples from Ethiopia does not mean that the whole lion population in Northeast Africa is admixed. -- BhagyaMani (talk) 11:13, 13 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
