2069 According to the animated episodes, the series of four wars between Earth and the Kzinti, a race of felinoid warriors, finally ends with the Kzinti being ultimately defeated. (Sources: “The Slaver Weapon” (TAS), wars ended 200 years prior to the episode.) This entry is only here for completeness however. This continuity is actually from Larry Niven’s Kzinti universe, which was integrated into Star Trek in “Slaver Weapon”, an animated episode that Niven wrote. It is considered by most fans not to be part of the Star Trek canon. Likewise, Niven fans do not generally see Star Trek as part of the Niven universe.
