You seem to think that because it's more likely for someone to be wrong in Biology versus Physics that they can't have a strong, confident opinion backed by science. Dawkins holds a PhD and is a really smart guy who has contributed to science in general and, more specifically, the theory of evolution. I don't see the problem here. As far as I can tell they were both being asshats to each other in the media (Wilson calling him a Journalist then Dawkins saying to throw Wilson's book hard). Reading Dawkin's response[1] I think it has merit and it refers to plenty of science (which doesn't come across at charlatanism to me) though I'm not going to say he's right because I don't know.
