"So you're saying since we sometimes find a pair together and/or 2-3 under the same rock/board/tin, that is consistent with bonding. I said since you sometimes find a king with a garter, rattlesnake, etc., now could that also be considered consistent with bonding? If not, why? You're coming to a conclusion based on what you're seeing right? "

>>>Yes I'm saying it's consistent. Consistent doesn't mean it proves it. It just means that it doesn't contradict it. Technically yes, finding garters and rattlesnakes with kings would be consistent with bonding because it doesn't refute it. I haven't come to any conclusions yet, I only said it might be happening, not that it is happening.

"I've given plenty of evidence myself that kings are not found in groups nor the numbers one claims they have or can be found. And this is published evidence."


>>>Are you refering to bluerosy's claim of about 100 kings in a day?

>>>I think he said that was with Cal Kings. I certainly think that would have been possible in coastal San Diego county back in the 1970's and 80's. Back then there were hundreds upon hundreds of boards and tin laid out and you could drive right up to them on dirt roads. Nowdays there's development and a city ordinance against off-roading and people still find 10 or 15 kings in a few hours.

>>>Or perhaps you're refering to Brian H.'s Common Kingsnakes book in which he claims there's millions of kings in the state of California?

>>>I'm interested to hear what claims you've refuted and what your evidence was.
