Unless their findings were completely wrong, this is obviously a huge issue that may go far to explain differences in aggression behavior. Even if the genetics were identical, the epigenetics would likely differ, just as they do for bass that have been caught and released

Can you post the study name so I can find it or give me the PB article date. Will be glad to revisit or post the article.

I can email the study if I can id it from the many I have saved.
