Some of the information from the Wilderness Medicine site seems rather poorly expressed, IMHO.

Did anyone notice the authors of these articles?

"These myths are explained and debunked by Dr. Murray Hamlet, DMV, Dr. Gordon Giesbrecht, PHD, and Frank Hubbell, DO."

Dr. Murray Hamlet, DMV (apparently, more properly, DVM), is a veterinarian who received his degree from Washington State University.

Dr. Gordon Giesbrecht, Ph.D is a professor at the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, where he operates the Laboratory for Exercise and Environmental Medicine.

Frank Hubbell, DO is a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine, and is the founder of SOLO (Stonehearth Open Learning Opportunities in Conway, NH).

A vet, a teacher and a doctor... why is the vet listed first?
