[QUOTE="Bright Raven, post: 1469805, member: 27490"] Ebenezer stated: [b]Angus cross well because the genepool is large, the variety is full scale and there is something for everybody.[/b] A bit of population dynamics to add to his statement: A larger genepool will always have more diversity than a smaller genepool. If you have a breed population of 100,000 individuals, that population will have 10 times more diversity than a breed population of 10,000 individuals. It is generally a direct relationship. That should help you understand why you see such diverse traits in the Angus breed. [/QUOTE]
