Hey I've been looking up lots bout jaguars and coastals lately. And found that this whole striping phase in coastals has a 'proper' name in the herp world I knew nothing about. I just thought they were striped....
 
personally i don't know why they call them tigers i'd call them not even tristriped jungles but there are lots of names being given to animals with newer morphs arising with inherited striped patterns but they aren't jaguar carpets....
 
Tis not jungles Browns. They're coastals, don't know the deal with the name either; but that newsclipping was apparently in an australian paper... I think the jaguars are named more for their colour and not patterns. So stuffs me why they came up with tiger.
 
I'd lay money that that's got jungle in it foxy and if it's Aussie it's not a proper jag.
 
The term tiger is used after the same trait being named for Retics that are the same morph.
Browns,- belive it or not but they more than likley are pure coastals, Ive seen a number of wild carpets that show this trait over the years. They can even be more common than youd think in certain pockets. But these being no-dought from uk or usa you never know.

I believe that snake was advertised in the USA, it has nothing to do with jags, although tiger coastals (wich all come from this line, others are just called tristriped) has been bred to jags for the last 2 years and they look awesome. At least thats how it was told to me.
 
No it dosn't have anything to do with jaguars, I've been looking up jaguars AND coastals. But you're right it is from overseas. Guess I misinterpreted something.
 
here you go, this is the first ever tiger coastal cross jag.

lets hope the morph phenomenon takes off here in oz too. There are enough albinos around to create some great looking animals. Keep your eyes open for the next monitor magazine. We are still busy with it but we have some great articles as well as pics of all the different morphs as well as how their genetics work lined up. It is going to be great. Keep your eyes open. Should be here in the next few months.
