This 'snake keepers' mentality has and still is one of the biggest setbacks to educating people about monitor husbandry.Unfortunately the control aspect fights adversly with the interest of our charges-monitor don't have the low threshold of care that snakes can subsist and procreate under.Having been in the monitor forum,hearing someone speak of a creature breeding at a size it was biologically designed to do outside human expectations and control i find odd.

As far as being frustrated by people not taking advice,or impulse buys-that is beyond my control.My responsibilty is to take care of my monitors beyond the best of my abilities-not accepting boundaries set by others or possibly my own prejudices,but what my monitor is telling me with the help of a broad spectrum of experienced keepers.Selfish that benefits others is after all another justification that will just have to do
