Quotes

“Honestly, we [The Reptile Zoo] have an amazing amount of types of animals for such a small place. But we don’t have lions and tigers and bears, things that take huge space.”

“Reptiles, especially snakes, don’t require a lot of space. Most reptiles feel comfortable in a smaller enclosure with the ability to hide and feel safe. As long as they get their food and everything they need, they’re content.”

“When I started [creating content], I never thought I could have went this far. I mean, 60 million followers between my business account that my daughter runs and mine? That’s weird. They didn’t have internet back then, you know what I mean? It’s just bizarre. From being a poor orphan, that’s just nuts.”

“When I got married [to longtime wife Becky], I decided I didn’t want to be a fisherman because there was a lot of drugs and alcohol. I didn’t want it around my kids, and I didn’t necessarily like it myself.”

“[Working with animals] is like a childhood dream in a way. I literally would wake up in the morning and go out and catch frogs and lizards, go in irrigation ditches at night. That’s what I liked to do. I would have done other stuff, but when you have no money, you don’t have a lot of options. I enjoyed the wilderness.”
