Receive Text UpdatesAnson is captivated by forests filled with evergreen and deciduous trees, rock formations, pristine cold-water streams, mountains, hollows and all creatures! He enjoys the fresh air, warm sunshine, and cool shade. For him, nature is a vast classroom—where he learns about foraging plants, animals & habitats, and bushcraft skills. With a heart for all things wild, traveling to National Parks is one of his dreams.
Anson’s favorite animal has changed from the cheetah, to the peregrine falcon, and now the mountain lion. He is especially fascinated by predators but is a book of knowledge about all. The second largest feline in the U.S., is stealthy and elusive. Rumors of a mountain lion sighting near his home have only deepened his interest. At 100–175 pounds, skilled at climbing and swimming, and a solitary wanderer of the forest, the mountain lion embodies strength and mystery—qualities Anson admires.
For Anson, any outdoor adventure brings joy and peace. He loves exploring—taking long hikes through the woods, studying animals, learning bushcraft, discovering fossils, saving habitats and understanding how everything is dependant on nature thriving. Anson Fynn is active outdoors fueling his endless curiosity in his own mountains, hollows, and the world!
