Photos: Meet Australia’s youngest wildlife ranger who plays with any kind of snake


Charlie Parker a 2-year old Australian boy whose family owns a wildlife park in the country is one of Australia’s youngest wildlife rangers. His family said they have never exposed him to the animals, but he got along with themnaturally.

'We're still shocked by his natural ability with the animals. It's quite remarkable to watch - he has absolutely no fear of them and he doesn't just handle them, he also has the knowledge. 'We've never purposely exposed him to the animals - he's just got this obsession with snakes and lizards. It must be genetic', his father said. More pictures after the cut
