I was gonna disagree with you, until I saw this line: "Mr. Friede’s first snake encounter, a harmless bite by a garter snake at age 5, started a lifelong fascination. “If I only knew back then what was going to happen,” he recalled, laughing uproariously. But he didn’t begin dabbling with snakes in earnest until he was married with children and working in construction." "Dabbling with snakes" is just poetry I mean, I think people can be that altruistic, but the people who really make a difference are those whose interests align with an altruistic outcome.
