A small bit of controversy in the herp world is over the correct usage of terminology, such as intergrade vs. hybrid and so forth.
We are those who breed hybrid animals, and that is hybridization. What is the correct term here: hybriders or hybridizers or hybrid breeders?
I'm pretty sure that hybriders is wrong, yet I see it in nearly every post. Hybrid breeders is long, and most won't take the time to type it. I've always used hybridizers as it sounds right and I believe it to be grammatically correct. What do you think?
Are there any other terms off the tops of you guys/gals' heads that we need to clarify while on the topic? ----- ~Venom~
