Again you have it wrong and thats what worries me. You keep saying its me thats in disagreement, its not. Its you or the zoo that disagrees with my monitors. You must understand, the monitors, you know, the ones pictured above and many more are what upsets your apple cart. They are the results of no UV bulbs. I am just the messenger that has brought this information to you.

AT this time, I look at hundreds of healthy productive monitors that do not use UV bulbs and have showed nothing. So of course I have to believe real results, the monitors.

What I do question is, What experience does the zoo have with varanids. You see, if they are not proficent with varanids to start with, then an experiment is pretty much useless. They have to have a base level of husbandry. You must understand that.

For instance, the information I offer you is based on monitors achieving life events, not just having a heartbeat. To keep a display animal healthy and alive really is only basic husbandry and very easy to do. A display animal does not require much calicum compared to a fast growing juvinile or a reproductive female. Again, I surely hope you realize that.

I am sure the zoo is very capable of this. We would all surely love to see these zoo monitors. Please take some pics and share with us.

One little problem. As a researcher you must not be prejudiced. That is, you must not start with a preconcieved notion of what the results will be. Yet here you are alreay calling your results "the TRUTH". The way you say it inferes that what I am showing you is not the truth. You see, its this type of approach that makes the difference between bad research/academics and good one. I hope your a good one. Cheers
