      50 if you’re carefully planning breeding.

      2000 for a good chance to persist long-time under normal breeding conditions

      I’ve seen some of the same estimates. I settled on 2K because that’s what is estimated to have survived the To a supervolcano. Or rather the non-African population that survived.

      Homosapiens in Africa actually did quite well comparatively.
