To avoid getting so philosophical about it without analyzing every statement I make...
When I say "the best care possible" that doesn't mean I want to duplicate the rainforest or the savannah. It means I want them to be alive, healthy, and thriving. Whatever that includes is purely opinion.
If I was an "old timer" and someone new to monitors made the statement "I want to provide the best care possible", I would have the utmost respect for them in the fact that they are willing to learn on how to care for their animals. It's really quite simple.
I don't keep animals as a "hobby". My desire to keep monitors has nothing to do with "they're a cool side project". This is my passion. This is why I'm going to school. This is why I research and make an attempt to stroke the egos of the more experienced grandfathers of the field. I do try my best to be the beta wolf, but unfortunately my young and cocky attitue tend to surface.
