But we don't think of Indians or Asians or Africans as "subspecies". That's my point. The Faunus could be a subspecies of human thus explaining capability to interbreed. For us, we the Homo Sapiens Sapiens were a subspecies along with Homo Neanderthalensis and Homo Erectus. They were not merely a different race, but they weren't a separate species either. Both are extinct, the Neanderthal having been bred out. It's viable that a subspecies developed on Remnant similar to Mutants and Metahumans, except that instead of gaining superpowers (other than the natural abilities of the animals they resemble), they "just look different".
