Originally from St. Augustine, Florida, Bwana Jim began handling alligators, progressed to the panther, and finally expanded to armadillos, wallabies, exotic birds and many other species. He has a rare gift for handling animals and shares his knowledge in an incredibly funny and entertaining way that is more memorable than any classroom!
