He would also take the snakes (and sometimes a baby alligator) to local k-12 schools for wildlife demos. I've always loved reptiles.
Yep. Brought home snakes, turtles and bull frogs in Greenwood. Always loved frogs cuz it tells you the system is clean. Steve Irwin's death was one of the biggest TV gut punches I ever took.
