You know, I'm Australian, and we have got the worst sense of humor. We are cruel to each other.

I believe sustainable use is the greatest propaganda in wildlife conservation at the moment.

I've probably saved thousands of peoples' lives with my educational message on snake bites, how to get in around venomous anything.

What television has done is it's given me a stepping stone to get to some other countries and really wild destinations throughout this world, which perhaps I would have had to struggle to get to.

I would sooner die of a taipan bite then tell my dad that I got bitten by a taipan. Because my nose would bleed from his kicking my ass.

Take the crocodile, for example, my favorite animal. There are 23 species. Seventeen of those species are rare or endangered. They're on the way out, no matter what anyone does or says, you know.

There's a lot of research behind the scenes that you don't get to see, but I have an instinct that my dad nurtured from when I was born. I was very lucky then.
