I am curious to know if the methods of ethologists have attained any level
of credibility in recent scientific works pertaining to biology.  Note that
I am not referring to anthropomorphism, but ethology.  

If not, why?  

If so, what is the proper method to relate the findings of studies where 
ethological methods are used?
