Without question that is so very true, its not about people, or you or I or whomever someone wants to believe in.

There is no question, the animals set the rules, they are the subject and they are the experts. we ALL are just observers.

The point thats hard to grasp is when we prejudice the outcome. That is, we CONTROL the outcome. Then say, thats what they(the animals do). Its not what they do, its what we allow them to do.

for instance. When most set goals as to what they want to achieve, they use an example of what Joe blow the colubrid guy did or does. I on the otherhand have always used nature as a goal.
As in nesting, and groups, etc.

These days all you have to do is go to some field forum and every spring someone flips a board with a group of this species, or that species, and yes, KINGSNAKES, and even a group of kings with a group of some other snake species. Every year, and with many many species.

Yet, when they do that, they say, my thats weird, we found a group of kings together. Why would it be wierd, its pure data, well almost pure, take away the AC and its pure. hahahahahahahaha

The sad part is, because those type observations do not fit what we tell eachother, its dimissed. What should be dismissed is what we were told, not what we observed. Cheers
