Indeed.

My point was that nature will often find a way. Mankind as a whole is a huge encroachment upon every other living thing we share this planet with, and yet we still worry about parasites that may or may not actually do a darn thing. But hey, I'll remain open-minded about this (contrary to what the snobs at BP.net think)...is there some evidence that proves releasing LTCs reptiles back into the wild is detrimental and aactually poses a large risk to the species in question? I'm not talking about soft, absorbant-skinned amphibians here; I'm talking reptiles. I'll read it if someone can post a link?

This statement brings to mind the thread about newbs asking advice then getting mad when they don't hear what they want

You've asked a question several times and gotten the same answer several times.
First of all, I'm not a newb. Secondly, I'm not the one who started this thread or asked for anyone's advice. We all just have different opinions and I'm trying to share mine. And right now, until someone shows me some of that bonafide evidence, nothing has changed; its merely your opinion against mine.
