“Also, judging by the colors, it seems we’re going for a Siberian husky rather than a Siberian cat.” Or Siberian Tiger, although the white ones are actually Bengal Tigers or Siberian/Bengal Tiger mixes.
Krix, the Siberian’s name is probably a reference to siberian tigers, since she has stripes
Wildbow was referring at Siberian tiger when he described Siberian. Just google it.
Ah, yeah, that makes a lot more sense.
The only Siberian I could think of at the time was the Siberian housecat. Siberian huskies I had to be reminded of by Google’s autocomplete suggestions, and Siberian tigers completely slipped my mind.
i think Siberian’s name cmes from Siberian tigers. Which is fun seing as they don’t have more chances than other tigers to get white stripes instead of orange ones.
Despite her being nicknamed Siberian, I always thought she was named that as a reference to black and white tigers, which are actually bengals.
I wonder how many asks with bengals you’re getting hit with. I forgot to actually check if you’d gotten one already before I sent mine.
Yeah, I got a few. No worries, though. 🙂
I guess Siberian or whoever else named her in-universe didn’t know tigers all that well, or just thought Siberian sounded better than Bengal or White Tiger (as may have been the case out-of-universe as well). Or maybe the latter two were taken already, like Crawler was for Skitter.
