Favourite TV Herper

[T.O-SK8TER]

Enso, why are you rippin on me?

[enso]

1. I'm kind of an a-hole. 2. You asked "Let me know if your favourite aint here!" I did and so did others, but because they don't have a "series" and aren't mainstream they aren't counted.
It's just a poll and I apologize. I like who I like and my favorite herper(s) are not on the list.

Corwin annoys me....Irwin....funny but too showy...Bredl...never seen him....I really like O'Shea, he is realistic and educational...
Siretsap, the guy from Insectia is hilarious especially when he talks about Dragonflies....all they want do do is sex, drug and rock and roll...lol.......

it is a mark between rob bretl and steve irwin but i chose rob cuz not only dose he teach us about the animals he also teaches us about how to survive in the wild

Yea, I have one of his episodes and he teaches how to find and cook wild rats, crabs, fish and clams using a fire that has been put out and covered with a bit of sand.

irwin > all

[mykee]

They're all cheesy and over-produced, but if I had to pick from the list, I'd go with Corwin.

When can I catch O'Shea on the tube. What station/time?

[gfisher2002]

Steve Irwin is my hero. lol

[Bartman]

anyone know exactly what time on the animal channel oshea is on? I wanna see one of his shows, i voted for irwin..i love him, he got me into herps and i see him a lot...i havnt seen oshea, maybe ill change my mind. I have satalite so if you know when oshea's on tell me what time if you know..thanks!

Both Corwin and O'shea (for those on the list) have a college education under their belts, so I know what they say is correct for the most part. Good shows too. Corwin I like, goofy and off the wall like myself. O'shea is just down right a great field researcher. I would have to pick them as a tie for different reasons.

Irwin, on the other hand, is alright and all, but in real life is somewhat a boring fella (so I have heard..heh) and I have seen him make mistakes about snakes and other herps on some of his shows, but all in all I like him. Does not seem all that bad in general, also the first herp series I have seen. Rob Bredl, the other Aussie, is pretty smart and does some good work, knows his stuff. Love his barefoot ways.

[Kyle Walkinshaw]

Rob Bredl is awsome!! Very knowledgable and quite entertaining My vote goes to him..

#1
Jeff Corwin. He is joker, smart and he handles animals properly.

#2
Mark O'shea would be great if he didn't get bit so many frigging times.

#3
Steve Irwin would be ok with me if he used a hook.

#4
The guy from killer instincts. He is really educated about the ozzy animals for sure. But I have not seen him talk about anything else. And again, it’s the issue of using a hook that knocks him down in my books.

#5
Steve Lenard knows a little bit but he focus's on everything so his knowledge is spread out. when it comes to reptiles and calling snakes "poisonous" and things like that, it bothers me easily, lol.

Just my thoughts.

Have to go with Mark O'Shea on this one simply because I've had the pleasure of putting away a few beers and a few meals with him. A real stand up guy with a genuine love for the animals he works with and immense feeling for his "fans." I can't imagine very many others spending both days of numerous two day shows sitting behind a table chatting and signing autographs. My hat's off to you sir.

[morelia_man03]

i have to go with irwin... i havn't seen many of his shows as they arn't really shown on TV over here in aus (or where i live anyway). but he has put more into the conservation for our country then any other person i know of. from memmory he put in half of his profits to conservation last year. this may sound like a really high amount, but because he is putting so much into the conservation for out country he don't have to pay tax... very smart bloke indeed
