Famous Snake Owners?

[Badger-X]

I am a teacher who uses reptiles in my educational programming. Snakes and lizards often show up in math class or life systems studies. The kids love them and have learned to respect and understand our scaley friends better. They always ask great questions about everyhting form how do they eat to how they breed! I was asked a question the other day that I could not answer.

Does anyone know of any famous people (people the kids would recognize) that owner lizards or snakes? If you have a web link too, that would be fabulous!

Much thanks!

The Seattle SuperSonics' Mikki Moore keeps three albino pythons and three American alligators in his Atlanta home, with the thermostat set very high. "I have a friend give the alligators goldfish once a week, and the snakes a rat every month, and they are all right," Moore recently told the News Tribune in Tacoma, Wash.
