This was another case of You Tube recommending me something that turned out to be awesome.
Coyote Peterson is a wildlife educator and host of his You Tube channel Brave Wilderness. He has many series on his channel where he discusses various creatures. They're most often filmed on location in the habitat of whatever he happens to be investigating after he finds them. He's probably best known as the guy that let a Cow Killer, Bullet Ant, Tarantula Hawk, and other scary insects sting him in the name of Science.
I've heard him referred to as the young generations Steve Irwin. I wasn't sure if I agreed with that until I watched him free handle a black widow (who he referred to as "sweetie" while letting her crawl all over his hand) in order to prove to people that black widows don't want to hurt you and you should just leave them alone. You can tell that he really cares about the creatures that he comes across and just wants people to learn and understand them.

My favorite series is probably Beyond the Tide, where Coyote looks at sea creatures. Here he is petting a giant sea slug.
