Barry,
Can I respectfully ask why you have the desire to handle the animals in the first place? I'm not trying to be inflammatory, I'd simply like a better insight into why you can't enjoy the natural beauty and majestic nature of the animal without laying hands on it. You mention "kindness" in one of your posts. Do you believe the animal can differentiate between actual kindness or simply not feel threatened by your actions?
As I said, I am in no way trying to be disrespectful, but rather better understand why those who choose to free handle are willing to handle the obvious risks associated with the practice.
