being a person who has had to spend an entire summer hunting and catching eastern diamondbacks, I can tell you NOT to livte the way the Muck does. It's about as intelligent as that Grizzly Man idiot. That Grizzly Man did nothing more than potentially risk the lives of the very bears he wanted to 'prove' were tame. He single-handedly indoctrinated all those bears to man interaction, which makes them fear humans a lot less if at all, which increases the chances of humans being attacked and eaten by those very same bears, which will then end up in the death of those bears. Thanks Grizzly Man, you have really helped our wildlife out there! Moron.

As for the snakes, they are not tamable. Nor do they feel the human concept of love. They aren't dogs. Yes, if you know how to handle them, you can manage to seem like moving environment them, not good eating therefore not worth wasting venom on, and even get them to crawl on you. However, ever heard of a man raising a fawn from birth and having it end up goring him later in life? Happens pal. Bambi attacks! We were shooting a video for the Parks and Wildlife regarding our research subjects and the rattler was all sprawled out on the rock. The researcher was leaning over it a little and was discussing the behavior and the need to 'sun' itself. At that moment, unannounced and unsolicited, the rattler launched itself three feet into the air and about two feet forward, to bite this man. Missed by less than 1/2 inch. Yeah, go ahead, roll around with the snakes man, gee they do it in India! By the way, the younger ones are far deadlier than the older ones, just so's you know.

We shall be reading about Muck's untimely death in a few years I am sure.
