Please considere that many people in this forum have a
scientific background, sometimes a high scientific
background. I am not an ethomologist, but I am quite
sure I am able to understand your scientific
arguments, even in a foreigner language (from my point
of view, of course). Please, go as far as needed in
your argumentation... otherwise it will just be
another wasted effort (or beating a dead horse,
expression I just learned).

Could you give precise references or facts ? I am not
pro or against any hypothesis. But I would like to
make my own idea by reading studies by myself.

Respectueusement,
