MEET the tiny eight-year-old reptile ranger who spends his days cuddling up to alligators and giant snakes. Daredevil youngster, Charlie Parker, has helped his parents care for the animals at Ballarat Wildlife Park in Victoria, Australia, since the moment he was able to walk. Charlie, who has his very own pint-sized ranger uniform, held his first snake when he was one and tackled his very first crocodile just two years later. And now, in and around his time at school, Charlie interacts with the animals more than ever – and has big dreams of becoming a professional zookeeper like his idol, Steve Irwin.
