Your right Mike…
All these questions and more should be addressed, however for having been the only one crazy enough to go out in the field, making observations when none wanted to get away from camp in anything less then favourable weather, I know and understand why studies are merely a piece of the puzzle.

It took me one year of study with captives to understand, that uromastyx from morocco to Egypt are depending on migratory locust for there source of protein, this natural event triggers life cycle. Yet most experts will tell you they are obligatory herbivores, some will even say they need dry conditions, yet there habitats are over ancient river beds, and moisture is available to them year round.

We keepers are finding new information every day, perhaps it’s our love for the animals that drives us to a better understanding?
