In Episode 114 of The Retic Lounge, Lucas and Nathan are joined by the renowned Nick Mutton to dive deep into one of the most controversial topics in herpetoculture: taxonomy. Known for his expertise in carpet pythons and his encyclopedic knowledge of reptiles, Nick brings a wealth of insight to this fascinating and often debated subject.
The discussion covers the intricacies of species classification, the evolution of scientific understanding, and the challenges that arise when it comes to defining what makes one snake species distinct from another. From differences in morphology to advances in genetic testing, Nick helps unravel the complexities surrounding reptile taxonomy and how it impacts keepers, breeders, and enthusiasts alike.
Whether you’re a long-time snake keeper, a budding taxonomist, or someone just curious about how species are defined and named, this episode provides valuable perspectives on a topic that has shaped the herp world for decades.
