Animal magnetism

This is a retake of a 40+ year old photo of me at the S.D. Zoo.  I had just sat down on the wall of the Darwin's Rhea enclosure to eat lunch and this Rhea came up wanting to get some of my sandwich.  I have gotten along well with animals (better than humans) and have believed God's word that man was given dominion over animals.  I respect animal and their space but do not fear them.  I have been able to make 2 vicious dogs back off & return to their yard. I have been able to communicate with my 2 Carine Terriers to not bother the cat that was thrown over our fence & to the cat to not bother my sm. parrot,  I have had a wild mountain goat walk up my car & stick it's head between me & the steering wheel & beg for food. I have chased pit bulls away that were charging my dog & I have had bees land on my bare back when working.  I just like animals.
