Except for maybe this one post to let you know, I will not tolerate talk about here on here. I dislike the woman. "Blah, blah blah, I have autism!". She never wrote any one her books, some one else did it for her. Her books are full of misinformation (yes, I've read them, blah), and there's no excuse for that since she claims to be such an expert

never heard of the bitch.

She went to some girls school for the gifted because her mom was rich and had enough money not to deal with her ego. She focused her curriculum on riding horses, then she got a PHD from University of Illinois. She used to take a lot of anti-depressants and a slew of chemical lobotomies, this coming form an "expert in animal behavior".

I read her books and she has NO CLUE on structural herd dynamics or dynamics of any sort of pack animal. She honestly believes that llamas bite the testicles off of each other ONLY IN CAPTIVITY and because they're stir crazy. Lamas and alpacas bite the balls off of each other because there can be only one herd sire, just like only the alpha wolves breed, but lamas like to make sure they're the only ones breeding. They even have a special pair of fangs specifically designed to chomp balls off. She worked on improving conditions of animals going into a slaughter house (pens outside up to the kill floor).
