Over the years of meeting keepers and professional herpetologists at herp group meetings, at museums, universities, on field surveys, etc, I have noticed commonalities and segregation between the types of people involved with reptiles and frogs. From what I've observed, passionate keepers attempt to find a voice through the medium of the internet. More often than not, keepers come to loggerheads over husbandry issues, etc. On the other hand, there is the realm of professional herpetologists whom often work with reptiles in a research capacity, such as at zoos, in laboratories, or in the bush (but also dabble with keeping as well). Professional herpetologists tend to share their knowledge quietly and confidently, disseminating information to those that will listen, and are far less likely to resort to the type of indignant rant so often seen on websites. Because of this sort of behaviour and elementary level infighting, I believe is the reason such websites lack the participation of Australia's leading herpetologists, whom are conspicuous by their absence.
