About the Event
Growing up in the pine barrens of Eastern Long Island, Nicholas Jacinto has always had a fascination with the natural world. By age 5, he was collecting box turtles and snakes in vivariums set up in his bedroom. By 10, his collection grew to include birds, ferrets, chinchillas, rabbits, fish, & reptiles. By age 14, he caught the eye of international animal expert, Marc Morrone, who immediately cast him on an animal segment of The Martha Stewart Living Show.
Jacinto is now a federally licensed master animal handler. His permits now allow him to work with native wildlife, dangerous wildlife, and endangered species. He is also licensed to breed and propagate dwindling species. His unique qualifications and expertise has put him high in demand as a consultant for zoos, wildlife centers, and he routinely works on any TV shows and movies where exotic animals are needed.
