Category talk:Extinct Species

Question
Should we include functionally extinct species here... usually thats species without a viable gene pool remaining (although that is pretty vague, I guess it means species with only 1-20 members remaining?) ralok (talk) 16:08, October 26, 2013 (UTC)


 * Well, it was always intended to include species that are extinct in the wild, and lazarus species would fit in it as well, so I don't see any reason for functionally extinct specimens to be excluded from the category. — Somarinoa (talk) 21:17, October 26, 2013 (UTC)


 * Might be mistaken, but I seem to recall a professor of mine once said that by the time a species is left with a single specimen, it's officially extinct already. Not sure if this applies to species which reproduce asexually, though. - BlueFrackle (talk) 21:33, October 26, 2013 (UTC)


 * Well okay then... functionally extinct species will be included. ralok (talk) 04:13, October 27, 2013 (UTC)
