Hi,

I have to ask, do you really think that a comparison of two individuals of 4 species will give you any kind of conclusive results? again, I am not trying to start trouble, but I don't think observations taken from such a small group will really tell you much of anything. Just individual variation alone between the 8 animals could effect the results. I would think for this project to be of value, you must study many, many individuals. I understand that you are seeking the truth, but I don't think you could honestly say you discovered/uncovered anything definitively with such a tiny number of subjects. Thanks.

Will

PS - I don't think your comment about having a post read to us was necessary. There are many folks here who dwarf you in both varanid experience and formal education, so comments like that are not helping your case.
