Really Taiga?

  • AnLand by AnLand moderator

    I asked myself whether the tagged female here (third female in row) is actually Taiga. Somehow her swelling looks rounder and with smaller and more foldings than Taiga. The infant also looks slightly bigger than Taiga's and I think it might be a boy, while Taiga's infant is a girl.

    Taiga for comparison with two bigger folds - a roundish one above and a big oval one below. From ACP000esic

    I could see this female and her swelling and infant (boy?) as a match: ACP000fno1 (This is four month earlier and the infant is smaller, but actually has the size of Taiga's kid in January 2015.) No face view.

    Hi AnLand, I think you are right, and the 3rd female in ACP000gnpq is not Taiga. This 3rd infant is a male 😕

    Hmmmm...I think @AnLand might be right: the third female´s back and hind legs look also different (not only her swelling); it´s sort of more less hairy than Taiga´s.

    As for ACP000fno1 , I think @AnLand´s proposal makes sense 😃
