My mom was a rescue veterinarian, and I grew up helping her nurse injured animals back to health. Any deer hit by a car, fox caught in a trap, whatever it was that got hurt, everyone brought them to my mom.

Animals are near and dear to my heart, and I've devoted my life to trying to improve their lives.

I grew up in a home where animals were ever-present and often dominated our lives. There were always horses, dogs, and cats, as well as a revolving infirmary of injured wildlife being nursed by my sister the aspiring vet.

I was so sad from losing two of my dogs and my mother. I had this vision of all these animals sitting behind bars. They had no control and were scared. That's why I got into fostering and adopting animals out.

I have always brought home stray animals - everything from squirrels to wild rabbits to foxes and turtles.

I accredit animals for keeping me going when times were bad.

Both my wife and I have a lot of compassion for animals in general.

My animals are a really important part of my life.

I rescued a dog. It was a beautiful.

Since I was a boy, from this house, I was out rescuing crocodiles and snakes. My mum and dad were very passionate about that and, I was lucky enough to go along.
