Eli

What does Eli love most about nature?

Eli says that nature is a world of joy to him and that it's a place that always calms his heart when life gets him down. Its his place of happiness! Eli loves all critters that exist in nature, watching them in their environments, and goes back to learn everything he can when he cannot physically be in the environment. Pretty much his entire life surrounds either experiencing nature or being stuck inside learning about it as much as he can.

What is Eli's favorite animal—and why?

Eli's current favorite animal is a bearded dragon. Eli loves bearded dragons because his personal pet bearded dragon Petey was his first friend he ever had and is his best friend. Eli loves their scaley skin and the spikes all over the sides of their body. He loves how their "beards" can puff up and turn black to warn other predators and make them look more scary even though Petey is very friendly.

What is Eli's favorite outdoor activity?

Eli's favorite activity is surviving in the wilderness on his own and looking for reptiles, amphibians, mammals, and any other wildlife. Eli likes to fill his adventure bag with all his tools for survival and spend the day buildings camps where he can go out and find all the critters in the woods and observe them. Eli loves to catch snakes, frogs, salamanders, turtles, and insects. When he catches them, he tries to find them a quick meal of whatever the eat in the wild and return them.
