Kenan Harkin discusses reptiles and conservation with famed breeder Tom Crutchfield. Check out Tom's Pythons and Iguana's and learn about the early days of the reptile industry when laws were looser and smuggling was more common!
Tom is a great guy super nice if any one has to say something bad about him they are just jealous of what he has done and accomplish in the reptile industry. He did what he did because it was ok back then and they really did not have laws and regulations and he took advantage. You can thank him for bringing stuff in that you probably would never be able to have if it wasn't for him. Truly a great guy he should not be looked down on or hated for what he did. He should be praised for all the conservation and good things he has brought to the reptile industry and bringing animals back from extinction.
Not true at all, there were laws because he broke them and was prosecuted 3 times. And smuggling endangered species is the opposite of bringing them back from extinction - it's driving them towards it
I could listen to Tom all day.
Great start to season two Kenan. Watched episode two already but thought I'd drop a comment here. Crutchfield truly is a legend, and despite all the negativity that is sometimes brought up when his name is mentioned - our hobby/industry would not be what it is today.
I gained much of my care and knowledge for Cyclura from David Blair and Crutchfield combined after many conversations over the phone. I'll be tuning in here now that you'll only be posting here. Should be uploading a new video today and I'll make sure to drop you a shoutout - hopefully send some of my subs that haven't subbed to you already over.
Keep the vids coming, live easy.
I interviewed Mr. Crutchfield on my show a few weeks ago he is a great guy and has a ton of knowledge. And your show was awesome can't wait for the next one .
I haven't been up to date with season 2, I will be watching all the episodes today after this one, great episode to start the season
Tom is truly inspiring
Phenomenal start for a new season. So glad Tuesday's are getting their groove back.
That dude should write a book on his life.
I think he is :)
There is a book about him he didn’t write it but it’s called the lizard king
And stolen world is another book about him
yes he is legendary,,,he spent several years in prison for smuggling into the US all kinds of venomous snakes,,,he is a felon,,,,watch,,"locked up abroad" he has his own show,,,,he would fly down to carribean and smuggle venomous snakes onto the plane in his back pack,,,,knowing all along if anyone looked in the pack, they would have been bitten by a cobra,,,,,thts what he brought a cobra into US, in a backpack,,,,,,he is an idiot,,,and yet all these jr venomous freehandling idiots think he is a saint,,,,,,,bs,,,he could care less about anyone getting bitten while he ran his smuggling enterprise,,,,,yea,,he is legendary alright,,,a real creep

You were by far the best channel on animalbytes. Glad you are continuing on your own.
A true animal lover!! So much heart and knollege. 👍
Fantastic show! I cant wait to see what else season 2 has in store!
Gott to show Tom much respect
i hate how people judge him on things he has done in the past, he has really help the reptile community and has done much conservation he is a true hero
Living legends like Tom are few and far between.
Love this Mr Crutchfield meet him twice once to pick up an albino and the second in Walmart. Lolol great guy
I've seen Tom's Iguanas all over the internet! So glad you showed us his facility!
I am amazed I'm from New Jersey I've never seen a venomous snake or any of these animals you have here upfront maybe a couple thank you I'm very anxious to check out this channel
Thanks for making these videos, they really get me excited about raising my reptiles the best way possible. Keep up the great work!
I wish tom and Christine would post on youtube i know its alot hes a busy guy but to hear from his first hand knowledge and experiences is always so neat and christines such a diamond in the rough we dont see many female ambassadors of venomous and shes juat a badbitch with it all i love her. I agree with alot of people a book from him would just be absolutely epic.
Awesome video Kenan. Great start to season two. (I'M SO EXCITED FOR SEASON TWO!)
*Ahem* I'm really thinking about getting an exotic pet, but I'm petrified of snakes. A tortoise would be really cool, but don't worry, I'm doing lots of research and watching lots of your videos. Lol. Hope all is well. Cheers
People can say what they want, Tom is amazing. Everyone makes what some call mistakes, and some call them a learning experience. Keep doing what you do Tom, improving what you can. Thanks for sharing with us Kenan, and doing the great things you do for animals. Thank you both
LEGEND IN MY OWN MIND! Preachhhh
Can you do some more videos with tom. The combination of both of you is amazing and greatly interesting as you both have different information to share
Tom is the man so much to learn from his
Loves Tom’s honesty !
Love the new intro Kenan!
Great video, can't wait for next week...
Very interning, love to hear more from Tom.
Awesome episode! So happy season two is back :) is it not going to be on animalbytes?
***** Sweet! I'll be tuned in to everyone!
You are literally the legend of almost every single herper that I subscribed to and I dead ass just realized that I fuckinggggggg dead ass didn't subscribed to his page
Amazing video, as usual keep up the amazing work
I met Tom in 1987 and found a friend I worked for him when he was in beleiz
Camp kenan: Can you imagine a your life without reptiles?
Me: that just sounds terribly boring!

I am seeing this video super late but great interview. It would be awesome to meet Tom in person.
I LOVE YOU KAMP KENAN!!!
Buddy I love this and I have a story ...I remember when I was a teen my neighbors and mewe found one of those small dark snakes by turning a rock and that sparked my interest in reptiles
best episode yet!
Great video
love this guy
Great to see your working more on your own channel.. ..
Tom is such a awesome guy. I would love to visit his facility.
He's living my dream life.
Sucks you are not on ABTV but I will be here watching every new episode! :)
***** I agree with Brandon. I want to see ABTV succeed and this was one of the best shows on there. Glad you are still making episodes, but sad to see you leave ABTV
***** Because you where the best show on there. :)
Tom is a fucking serious reptile God!!
Very entertaining
Tom is Tom, love him or hate him. Personally and as a reptile lover & keeper, I have the height of respect for him.
Awesome vid
His setup is the truth
hi like to see you helping reptiles
That guy Tom to me seems like more of an animal lover than the Peta ppl. I do believe that he probably knows more about those animals than a person who has a degree and it is because he has actually been working with them and watching them studying and learning from that experience. Seems more of an animal hero than most. Kinda like one of those biblical people who did crazy things but then took all that experience and turned it into a learning experience for me and everyone else. Thanks Tom for your time and help with everything!
One thing that I've learned in my life is that illegal and immoral aren't always the same thing.
Interesting stuff
Bloke seems genuine
With hurricane Florence, i am wanting to know with such a massive collection of your reptiles, how you deal with Mother Nature ?
I recently bought a baby rhino iguana from tom and I was very pleased with it. I thank tom for all work he has done. I will buy an albino iguana from him within the next 2 years also
+Mikey Lopez . Good luck with your Rhino Iggy, their amazing. I would love one myself but they command huge money here in Europe.
+Ribbitmefoot thanks man. and ya they aren't cheap. but I'd say they are worth all the work and money
fantastic living relics
I only breed box turtles now. I used to breed other reptiles but stopped.
I seen tom on locked up abroad lol
Kenan I got a sulcata tortoise 25 days ago what are some tips to take care of him or her. I have him or her in a 40 gallon breeder tank and one more think lately he or her has be getting a lot of white stuff around his or her eyes is that some type of disease or something like that?
Charl Ann McKneely
That tortoise is going to get huge, well over 100lbs. I hope you understand that it will outgrow that tank in a couple of years and require a backyard size enclosure.
He seems like a great guy to have a chat with!
To bad the mistakes learned for them can cost alot for others, especially other animals. Like the Everglades!
nice..
great vid kenan
It also helps that most reptiles easily reproduce

Wasn't this guy on the first episode of Tiger King?
Yes
i really want to meet this man i tried to reach out to tom but i never got a response ;-;
Mr Crutchfield is an amazing guy!
Beautiful
Tom keep up the Great work!!!!!
I think captive breeding is ethical depending on the people. Tom may made legal mistake in the past. I hope that he does continue what he does; at the same time, I hope he also complies with the wildlife law.
What makes that intro sound? :o
Amazon episode!
Man I really love tom!!!
AND HIS NAME IS.......TOM CRUTCHFEILD!!!
Thanks genius. It’s in the title.
Man tom crutchfields.a amazing person
Tom is the reptile grandfather
What's the deal? I thought you were still on AnimalBytes?
***** Glad you're keeping the series going. I'll be watching!
***** Now that you're on your own, I feel more confident asking you if you'd do an episode specifically about US-native turtles, the native animals and plants they benefit from, and about their habitats. Native animals mean a lot to me and its rare for shows to focus on them. Its nice learning about what's in our own backyard sometimes.
JBtheExplorer +1 to show on native species. Yeah, good one JB.
what an amazing man
I wonder if tom can get me some ground tiger or rhino bone?
u are soooo inspiring to get a pet and make a good inviroment for it
How much does he post videos
Sorry, that was my little Brother taking over my accounts :/
At 00:11 see iguana bad infected mouth
Most likely under care of that, since it's at Tom Crutchfield's place! ;)
👍🏿🤘🏿
Albino iguana
And know we got nile Crocs. Wtf. Spin it anyway you want your wrong
I cinders like it☹️🙂
He talks about not taking animals from the wild, yet his company advertises numerous wild collected venomous snakes. Some of which come from known localities where over collecting had had a huge impact on the population. You can't cure greed.
Sooo did no one else notice the iguana at the very beginning that had the top half of his jaw just mangled?At about 10 seconds seriously that iguana needs some serious help.
It was most likely from breeding or it could be a rescue
yeah I notice that too
jere9000 it was a birth defect
He shoulf try messing with them genes and produce a dwarf crimmssonn iguana
Except its technically illegal lmao
👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿 -gbotb @labsafety_
He doesn't care what others think, but claims to love reptiles. He is a infamous character and people seem to love this geezer, for what?! Just because he was first at breeding a few reptiles? Celebrity criminal like Manson, just not as cool.
