Receive Text UpdatesHe’s a curious explorer with a passion for wildlife. Fascinated by unusual creatures, he’s always asking questions about how animals live, adapt, and survive in their environments. Instead of cartoons, he prefers documentaries and nature shows—and he’s constantly surprising us with the amazing facts he learns and shares.
"Frogs and lizards because they are so cute!!" He loves all animals and they love him but he has a special affection for reptiles. He has a bearded dragon named Trae that he has cared for since he was 4yrs old. He takes Trae everywhere with him ( Walmart, Sams Club, fairs, festivals). He always wants to share his love for animals and educate people about them. He tells everyone he meets about Trae, his habitat, diet and features.
Everyday after school he gathers his "crew" ( doberman, Frenchie, Cavalier) and they explore our 5 acres chasing squirrels and looking for frogs, lizards, snakes and turtles. He always releases them after finding them ( and luckily none of them have actually caught a squirrel)
