Geez, look away for a minute and look what I started. In my earlier days I would probably initially be pissed and spout-off some smart ass remarks but I am old or tired now...



My comment was based solely on Jobi expression of some bad and or illegal activities he witnessed and commented on...



I have not now or ever said I speak for the entire field, as that would be stupid and honestly impossible. But I will say that with all the bashing that goes on, allot of folks (not saying you FR) like to talk trash but apparently don't honestly know the extent of what different inst are actually doing. That being in the CONTEXT of the conversation of conservation (the subject of the previous post I commented on).



As for comparing your results in varanid reproduction to the zoo field, your right, it SUCKS overall and that is why I am here and on various forums talking with you and others to try to get my own S--T together. Not for everyone else, that is their responsibility.



As for head hunting, well that is sort of up to individual curators/managers, etc...the same way it was at Dallas years ago and still is.
