Re: Debate Suggestions?
how about some of the ones that always get me in trouble.
1.) caging [surface temps, substrate, cage shape, temp gradients (naturalistic environment v.s. sterile environment)].
2.)Interpreting reptile behavior and training (conditioning) + enrichment.

Re: Debate Suggestions?
Tom,
#1 gets rather specific to the reptile or amphibian being kept and is not something that can be debated across the board.
#2 ALWAYS gets you in trouble

Re: Debate Suggestions?
I rather like the idea of a naturalistic vs. sterile debate. I know not all species can be kept one way or the other, but the general reasoning for keeping one over the other is usually the same, regardless of species. I would like to see it as a dabate.

Re: Debate Suggestions?
this post made me think of another one.
http://redtailboa.net/forums/feeding...-bad-idea.html
Feeding wild prey to reptiles. Not to mention could farmed food and sterilized branches be leading to a weaker immune system?
Perhaps we need to make this not only scientific debate but scientific questions. I would love to ask this question somewhere.

Re: Debate Suggestions?
What about should permit systems and back round checks be done on people wanting to keep reptiles?
