I'm really curious as to what "valuable" information he has shared with you, I haven't found a single helpful tip or advice coming from him in this forum or any other.
And it boggles my mind that he's a member of the Southwestern Herp Society, who stands by their following statement off their official website:
The objectives of the Southwestern Herpetologists Society are:
* To enhance the education of the members and the general public concerning the roles of amphibians and
reptiles in the natural world.
* To promote the conservation of reptiles and amphibians in particular, as well as all wildlife in general.
* To provide information for the closer cooperation between amateur and professional herpetologists, that
they may work together for the promotion of the science of herpetology.
Yet the ol' man wants to act like a child and criticize my rescue efforts for stray reptiles in peoples' homes.
I wonder if the organization actually knows about him? They may just not care, and that is exactly why I refuse to donate to an organization that condones this behavior from one of their very own.
Oh well...
