Watching, reporting, appreciating from a distance is one thing.
I grew up in Florida and was PROPERLY taught not to INVADE THE SPACE of alligators, sharks, stingrays, spiders, snakes, and bikers at Daytona Beach.
Imagine him grabbing a guy from a bar, talking wildly in his face, probing, teasing ..... Sad as it is, someone finally kicked his ass.

Steve was sharply criticized for his behavior around penguins, seals, and whales in a past documentary. If a Leopard seal would have killed him it too would have been a freak accident. Unless you are fucking with it!
