kid must have psychological issues, surely?
at 7?
it's Australia, his dads probably a cross between crocodile dundee and steve irwin, they eat koala bear sandwich's for lunch and kangaroo soup for dinner, the kid had probably been and seen the show where they chuck bits of meat and stuff to the crocodiles and gave it a go himself, probably not a foreign thing for him to do handling all sorts of lizards, he probably lives in a gaff with them crawling all over the place.
