A good comparison is the domestic cat. The domestic cat comes from the African wildcat. The two cats are genetically similar but distinguishable with the domestic cat containing a noticeably low degree of genetic diversity. The African wildcat is endangered for no other reason than being replaced in the wild by the genetically compatible domestic cat.
