I have a question for all you anti- folk...

If what you measure "success" of knowing about monitor health, behavior, and necessities, is by reproductive output in captivity, I wonder what you are basing your own opinions on? or are you simply spewing out what Frank has said about his own animals...



I would think if you all knew exactly what monitors are about, what they need, and how they act, as you are claiming you do, all of you should have hatchling monitors running around by the hundreds, and seeing immeasurable "success". To my knowledge, this isn't the case, as most of you on this forum have not hatched out any monitors, and the majority of you out there who have, have been inconsistent at doing so....Where are all the baby monitors???



Anybody can sit at their computer and retype what Frank has said, but what is your proof, or evidence suggesting that you, yourself are right?? Where are your results???? I mean, after all, you can come here and bash personal observations and research that members of this here forum have made in the field...but what do you have to contribute, from your own observations in captivity...Keeping in mind, according to your own belief system, your observations don't mean a damn thing, unless you have produced generations upon generations of monitors...



So if all of what you are preaching is true about the needs of monitors, why is Frank the only one experiencing "success"???? What the hell are all of you doing wrong?? Where is your success, after all, you are so quick to disregard all of what is known regarding monitor's ecology and ethology? What are you doing wrong? Perhaps you should take a better look at what you are being fed, before swallowing....



Do enlighten me...
