Bruce Freeman, the “snake guy” of Agua Dulce, once made his living as a savvy financial advisor. Now he wrangles snakes. After retiring from a successful career, Freeman set out to help save people from snakes – and snakes from people.

Whether it is venomous or non-venemous Freeman is always on call to remove snakes from peoples homes. He also works as a safety presenter for local companies and schools focusing on how to take the necessary precautions to avoid being bitten.

Freeman keeps a few non-venemous snakes that he has rescued over the years.

“My granddaughter loves them,” Freeman said. ” She sits with the python in her lap and watches t.v. every time she comes over.”

Many people have a fear of snakes but according to  Freeman people have nothing to fear.
