Bradley & the Natural World

From his earliest years, Bradley was fascinated by the natural world. He loved holding frogs, worms, snakes, insects, and almost every creature he encountered. Over the years, he cared for a tarantula, ants, a chameleon, and his beloved snake, Zelda—and he even enjoyed studying the crickets kept as chameleon food.

Whether he was hiking, backpacking, visiting a reptile show, planning a backyard ecosystem, or dreaming of a biodome filled with different species and climates, Bradley wanted to explore, understand, and care for the living world around him.
