What does Calum love most about nature?

He loves discovering new creatures in nature that he hasn’t seen before and he absolutely has to know all about it. Though he is fascinated by creatures that can harm, he respects them and is not afraid to approach them calmly to observe and not touch. He uses his microscope and his bug catcher with magnifying glass to investigate any bug he finds and also enjoys building homes for ants! He even built a small terrarium and raised about 70 isopods that we released back into nature.


What is Calum's favorite animal—and why?

Hammerhead sharks because “they look cool, have sharp teeth, I like the shape of their head, and they look scary!”


What is Calum's favorite outdoor activity?

Camping, swimming, and metal detecting
