What scientists? Several scientist I know of have documented mandarinxwood duck hybrids. Please, tell me where the karyotpes are showing how many chromosomes a wood duck has and how many a mandarin has. I know wher ethe lore has come from and have serious questions about the original data from looking at the paper and talking with avian gnetists about it. Please tell me where the actual information is.
I have never seen an atom...doesn't mean they don't exist. You obviously haven't read Bill Dilger's paper on mandarinxwood duck hybrids. Please, give me the reference for the "Proof" of the extra chromosome. I just want to evaluate the "proof" for myself.
If I was Dylan I would go on the attack and demand that you link to Bill Dilger's paper as well as show scientific proof of the Wood Duck x Mandarin hybrids existence along with the tests proving that Mandarins and Wood Ducks have the same number of chromosomes instead of listening to you demand proof of their non-existence. You already ran this flag up the pole and then walked away in an earlier post. If you are going to start a war then see it through man! Stirring the pot and then walking away is no fun at all for those of us on the sidelines, lets see a real scientific debate!
