My favorite animal is any type of reptile. I like to learn about them and capture them. I keep them in a habitat for a little while and then release them.
My favorite outdoor activity is fishing. Fishing is cool because you never know what you’re going to catch. I get excited but a little scared when there’s a shark or stingray on my line. I love catching all types of fish!
