im origanlly from wisconsin. ive always been a huge animal person but predatory animals seem to grab my eye, specifically reptiles. ive handled close to 80% of the reptiles in wisconsin but was not fortunate enough like now to be able to photograph them. my wife and i moved to fl in 06 for jobs as she is a dolphin trainer and i am a diver. i travel between florida and louisiana for work. i explore everything inbetween. over the past 2 years ive become increasingly interested in reptiles. ive handled reptiles i never thought i would get to from a 9' alligator to a 4.5' rattlesnake. i enjoy seeing so many ppl that have the same passion that i do and i am happy to share my experiences with everyone. my goal is to travel to a few other states in search of there cold blooded inhabitants, as well as a couple other continents.
