But according to Darwin, the established varieties such as the English carrier, the short-faced tumbler, the pouter and the fan-tail, were ‘so different in form and habit that an ornithologist judging them as wild birds would probably not even put them in the same genus, and as wild birds the domestic varieties would certainly be counted as separate species.
