why? WHY??

I'd have read the study if the book wasn't 180 bucks or 120 for a dang E-book. I wonder if these people ever thought about lowering these things to like 40 bucks how many people would actually buy them. Especially for a book published 13-14 years ago.

The book references other studies. Save your money and look up the studies that are referenced. I got a copy of the book when it was in print and it was a fraction of the price.

This isn't directed at you but members in general. Google is virtually useless when trying to look up specific scientific papers. If you are trying to look at feeding habits of a particular species, you need to understand what study would be undertaken to determine such habits.

There have been thousands of studies done on captive and wild snakes ranging from behavior, to feeding patterns, to stress responses, to prey size and type and adaptations that define their natural history.

Is there a good source to look up specific scientific papers that you use or know of?

Because I started searching for some scientific papers and such and they want to charge me 10 bucks just to look at one and that one is 40 years old!

I have free access to them through other avenues.....most are pay to play.

One says its a non-profit I'm calling BS on that one.

Yes there is a reason for this has to do with natural hunting instinct. Will find the article to post

There was a dedicated study done on this and it had absolutely nothing to do with hunting. Can you provide me a link to this contradictory study?
