Thanks Bob, I think for me to personally understand the whole picture I will need to try and source Greg Hollis's field studies. I think it's the only way to get the full picture on what the hell is going on. Thank you so much for your input - and to everyone else who haven't blown their cool yet about this.

Hehehe I've never seen one in the wild :wink: But I'm certainly interested to know what all the Whoohar is about

This topic is an important one, it's a topic that is incorporated within our hobby, and certainly good information for a "newbie" like me to gather an understanding as to what the terminology means. It might also be benefitial in helping people streamline their current views on what it's all about also. I don't think these topics should have to be locked, and I think people need to refrain from getting personal about it.

I'm also not afraid to say in the "big picture" of reptiles I know sweet F all! But, I'm trying to learn as much as I possibilty can about it.
