    About Brian Barczyk:
    Brian Barczyk was a passionate wildlife enthusiast and vlogger who dedicated his life to sharing his extraordinary journey with animals on UA-cam since May 10, 2016. His remarkable adventures led him to be part of TV network series, produce “Brian In The Wild” a documentary in South Africa, travel globally to encounter incredible animals and their advocates, initiate “Checking In” a podcast, establish “AnimalConUSA” a convention for animal content creators and their fans, and create The Reptarium - an interactive reptile zoo in Utica, Michigan, among many many other achievements.
    In March 2023, Brian faced the greatest challenge of his life with a diagnosis of inoperable Pancreatic Cancer. His strength, courage, and the unyielding support of the incredible #ReptileArmy community inspired him to continue sharing his story and pursuing his dreams, even in the toughest times.
    Brian's vision for the LegaSea Aquarium & The Reptarium, a symbol of resilience and the power of dreams, is now a legacy that his crew and family are devoted to bringing to life in his honor. As we break ground on this expanded facility just across the street from The Reptarium, we embrace this mission as a testament to Brian's indomitable spirit.
    Join Brian's crew, family, and the #ReptileArmy in continuing this inspiring journey of discovery, conservation, and hope. As we vlog the LegaSea aquarium build, embark on adventures around the world, and deepen our connection with wildlife, we pay tribute to Brian's legacy. Together, we will forge a future where every encounter with the natural world is a moment to inspire, educate, and celebrate the extraordinary tapestry of life that Brian so loved.

    Good morning! I enjoy seeing EVERYONE in the blogs. The group of people building the LegaSea, including Lori's team (YES, i miss Brian. Its kind of hard hearing his voice at the end ofveach blog) BUT the awesome TEAM he built is now led by Lori. And i really like how she gets more than one persons ideas about differentbthings. As for you, Jay (not Tingle) being in the vlogs, i think that, too, is a fitting tribute to Brian. If i remember right, didnt Brian do his own videoing BEFORE you came on?

    Mike is turning into a mini Brian! 😊 I can see him in twenty years doing great things.
    I can see him wanting to spread his wings in a couple of years and go on his own and travel the world researching reptiles and mammals too eventually.
    I would love to see him visit Thailand with Ruperts reptiles and Davidsfeed. I would also love to see him visit Chrissweet there too and see his kings and other venomous collection.

    Can u imagine how much more difficult the build would have been if if had not been on that site. The fact that that u can cross the road between the Reptarium and the Legasea has made the whole thing so much more manageable. Need Jay. U could almost annoy him over, if we didn't have mobile phones obviously. The staff, the contractors and Lori seem to skip so effortlessly between buildings. Not too long to go now folks. Xxx❤

      ​@@rachelcapps5565 stop making accusations that you know nothing about! Dudes fine! If you were a dedicated viewer you would know RJ is fine and still in the same place bc you would of seen the update video of RJ! Im sick of seeing all these wild accusations about RJ coming from ppl that obvisously don't even watch every video! If you dont watvh every video then you shoukdnt be howling in the comments always every video begging to see an animal you haven't seen in a while! Not there fault you ppl refuse to watch the update video but still keep begging to see RJ and saying hes dead or they are hiding him or they gave him away! Maybe do your reaseaech before you start making wild claims! Everyone needs to stop bothering these ppl in every single video begging and demanding to see RJ! Either get over it or watch the video! Simple as that!!

      ​@@rachelcapps5565 don't spread rumors. If something happened with RJ they would tell us, just like every other animal that they care for. It's very disrespectful to even suggest they are hiding something about him. It's fine to ask about him, but it's not ok to tell others "I think they got rid of him or he died" is not ok at all. It spreads rumors and makes people not trust the crew, Lorrie and Brian.

      Can we be told how the job placements will be decided. How much formal education is required. How much pull experience over education has? Paraprofessionals have a chance getting hired? Are you going to have senior greeters? Do you need a Marine Biologist on tap? My niece graduated a few years ago as a Marine Biologist. She is on Oregon’s Coast. She also is a trained veterinarian tech. She lived in Singapore for a while as a teen and also volunteered in Tibet. She is young. Ok enough pitching my niece. 😅 any way not that I prefer ocean animals I am just a water baby. But I have always been an animal enthusiast and have spent my life studying them for my own fun.

I love you guys keep up the good work and stay motivated.

  • @mikalmos369
    @mikalmos369 2 дні тому +1

    I've been trying to be very positive but I just have to say that capybara do far better with a group and a larger water feature. I have been waiting for this enclosure to be built and I am sadly disappointed. He's still alone and has a mostly aquatic creature he's getting basically a kiddie pool. I like that you are able to take advantage AZA certified for some things in a positive manner like the ray tank and in other things it is being taken advantage of in a negative manner like what this capybara enclosure and the fact that he will be kept alone.

    • @GiantCrab
      @GiantCrab 2 дні тому

      When they first got the capybara, a lot of people told them that it needed at least one other capybara friend. At first, they said everyone telling them this was wrong because the breeder they bought it from said it would be fine living alone. People kept insisting they are social herd animals that need buddies, and I remember them stating they were going to get another one.
      Looks like that was just to get people to shut up about it.
