Socratic Monologue
I agree with Elena.

The identity of locality lines is only maintained by trusted people breeding those localities. If there's a break in that line of trust, then the locality of animals further down those lines are in doubt.

If you plan to breed locality bloods, buyers of your animals will want to know the lineage trail, too, at least back to a breeder they know. If you can't provide that, then you can't really sell locality animals. I get asked all the time who my stock came from.

I myself wouldn't imagine that there is a breeder working with WC locality bloods who is wholesaling the offspring; I would expect that such a breeder would have a public presence, and would be willing to put their name behind those animals.
