Wow, that guy has guts! Why would he do that though? lol
I saw that he is on Brave Wilderness channel. That was started by a guy who calls himself Coyote Peterson. I don't know the stone fish guy's story, but Coyote got famous with youth by filming himself testing a pain scale for "science." He'd find various bees, wasps, etc and sting himself and create a scale 1-10.
It looks like this other guy is into marine wildlife and doing the same.

I used to teach wildlife education so I am interested in animals, but did everything I could to practice safety and avoid bites and stings from venomous creatures.

If she only feed one fox once, and the next day she had 7, foxes must have extensive communication skills between each other. I always thought they were solitary.
That's a good point.
Coyotes and other dogs are social, but foxes are solitary after leaving the den and establishing a home range. They looked like juveniles. The color, size and facial similarities look to me like they are all from the same litter. Although they are weaned, I doubt they are independent yet.
The reason I mentioned about not feeding the bears Or foxes is how they will associate humans with food. That could encourage dependence and might get them killed by farmers.

It is amazing though how they communicate with each other and how the the one brought the whole pack so close to the lady, even up on the porch. Really cool!

I do actually! I have one indoor cat, a small dog, a cockatiel and then mom and I look after two outdoor cats that just appeared one day. Do you have any?
That keeps you busy, wow!
Cockatiel's are so smart. I hope your cat ๐Ÿ˜ธ is friends with it. I never raised one, but they seem to be a lot like the S.A. big parrots in a smaller package.

I adopted an awesome baby opossum this summer.
She is growing fast. I'm debating whether to keep her to use in ministry or not.
Her name is Fluffer. She's a cute little fluff ball.

Oh yeah Leo and Tweety get along well! Tweety is 23 and Leo is 8. Leo grew up around him and will not attack him.

Lots of opossums here in Texas. They kinda scare me. Good for you to help one out though! How do you use an animal in ministry? I donโ€™t think Iโ€™ve ever seen that. Sounds interesting!

I had no idea cockatiels lived so long!
You must doing everything just right.
That must be nice to be able to let your bird out when the cat's around.

Opossums try to scare because they aren't very good fighters or fast enough to run away. Mine still growls real low like a ferocious dog if I startle her. It's hard to believe that such a growl can come from a sweet little fluff ball. If God didn't make them that way, they'd all get eaten very young and become extinct.

I've worked with rescues that learned their individual names, hand signals and a vocabulary of commands faster than any dog.
It takes a lot of work and starting young, proper training of the right ones. Then they can be exposed to others. They aren't all candidates for that.

The Lord has provided hundreds of species of animals to take to major events, schools, park programs, churches, assisted living, convalescent homes, talk shows to share God's creation with the world. God opened doors to share His glory and grace through what He has made.

I have had some incredible experiences with close encounters with wildlife. I'd love to see wild mountain goats like this in their natural environment. They don't live in my part of the country, but check this out! What an experience this person had and was able to record it for us.

For those who are sensitive, please don't yell at me and tell me this is a "CHILD AND NOT A KID!!!"
