Whit Gibbons might be knowledgeable is certain areas of herpetology but grossly lacking in others. Publishing papers , writing books and doing conservation studies make for a nice looking resume` but it`s amazing how much you don`t need to know to accomplish those things.



Irregardless of qualifications the point isn`t if a person can competently perform an experiment or not . The point is can you trust them to provide data that has not been skewed by personal bias. So far all of the hand picked scientist that have been selected to address the invasive issue have shown an incredible bias and willingness to lie and present highly questionable information as fact . Based on the alleged comments Whit Gibbons is falling in line with his colleagues.



There is every reason to be suspicious because what we have seen so far has been a scientific kangaroo court. Science is a business being a scientist is a job. Just like in any other profession their will be individuals who are willing to compromise their code of ethics for personal gain. Various organizations seek out and use these individuals to further their own corrupt agendas. Corrupted science for personal and political gain is wide spread and has been thru out history.
