I don't want to wish death on anyone, and I'm not saying I do, but this guy was one of the worst offenders in the Let's Disturb The Wildlife And Get Rich And Famous For It crowd which now includes hundreds if not thousands of individuals and tours where people "interact" with wildlife, usually to the detriment of the animals. The cries of "We're just drawing attention to the plight of endangered creatures, and we want people to understand more about the natural world around them, blah blah blah..." just won't wash. I don't know a single responsible animal/wildlife reseacher who thought this asshat was anything but a publicity freak and a jackoff who made things worse - by emboldening others to emulate his childish and sometimes dangerous treatment of animals in their habitat. I'm sorry most for his wife and children. For him, I place him in the same category of the idiot who harrassed the grizzlies in Alaska and finally ended up in one's dung. That prick took his poor, uneasy, unfortunate (to be in love with him, obviously) girlfriend with him.
