Exotic cats ban up for Board of Game review

Link: The Redoubt Reporter The Alaska Department of Fish and Game this week will recommend to the Board of Game that it not lift restrictions on exotic cats. It says exotic hybrid cats can survive in the Alaska wild and that they might interbreed with wild species or transmit disease. But a Ninilchik woman who has been crusading to allow Savannah and other cats as pets says the department's fears are not based on fact. Biologists are citing the escape of a Savannah cat in Anchorage and "unconfirmed" reports of interbreeding with bobcats as evidence of the danger, but the exotic cat supporters say that's nonsense.
