Subspecies is a danger to...I know you guys arent ot much inot fish9except ot feed your herps) but I'll just use an example.

Stocking rainbow trout into streams for commercial fishign caused them ot breed with the California golden trout, so now some of them are polluted by hybridization. If it spread,s then they may lose the pure golden trout lines(just as breeding fancy guppies into feeders will lead ot feede,rs the dominate genes)

We still don'
t know whats out in the world of genomes, so be careful....
