Nice article, but the fox blood mixing with humans bit is pseudoscience. Although fox blood could become mixed with human blood as a result of a bite if the fox's mouth was bleeding (or whatever), this is an acquire characteristic, not a genetic one. It would not be passed on to decendents, and after a period of time the blue fox blood would be entirely replaced in the original recipient's blood stream by normal blood manufactured by the recipient's body. It's nice fluff, though. [[User:Praetonia|Praetonia]] 22:16, 5 January 2007 (GMT)

Nice article, but the fox blood mixing with humans bit is pseudoscience. Although fox blood could become mixed with human blood as a result of a bite if the fox's mouth was bleeding (or whatever), this is an acquire characteristic, not a genetic one. It would not be passed on to decendents, and after a period of time the blue fox blood would be entirely replaced in the original recipient's blood stream by normal blood manufactured by the recipient's body.

Actually, hemoglobin contamination has been scientifically proven, a reason for such medical conditions as hypertrichosis and aniridia. Though I do admit the procedure for being infected does take a significant chunk from my imagination. So, I admit it is not totally possible, though it does take some factual evidence to form a basic quasi-realism. ;) (( Pacitalkia )) Time sent: 22:29, 5 January 2007 (GMT)
