About Brian Barczyk:

Brian Barczyk was a passionate wildlife enthusiast and vlogger who dedicated his life to sharing his extraordinary journey with animals on YouTube since May 10, 2016. His remarkable adventures led him to be part of TV network series, produce “Brian In The Wild” a documentary in South Africa, travel globally to encounter incredible animals and their advocates, initiate “Checking In” a podcast, establish “AnimalConUSA” a convention for animal content creators and their fans, and create The Reptarium - an interactive reptile zoo in Utica, Michigan, among many many other achievements.

In March 2023, Brian faced the greatest challenge of his life with a diagnosis of inoperable Pancreatic Cancer. His strength, courage, and the unyielding support of the incredible #ReptileArmy community inspired him to continue sharing his story and pursuing his dreams, even in the toughest times.

Brian's vision for the LegaSea Aquarium & The Reptarium, a symbol of resilience and the power of dreams, is now a legacy that his crew and family are devoted to bringing to life in his honor. As we break ground on this expanded facility just across the street from The Reptarium, we embrace this mission as a testament to Brian's indomitable spirit.

Join Brian's crew, family, and the #ReptileArmy in continuing this inspiring journey of discovery, conservation, and hope. As we vlog the LegaSea aquarium build, embark on adventures around the world, and deepen our connection with wildlife, we pay tribute to Brian's legacy. Together, we will forge a future where every encounter with the natural world is a moment to inspire, educate, and celebrate the extraordinary tapestry of life that Brian so loved.

Dang! I gotta give HUGE props to Bashi, WOW he's such a pro and so kind and willing to come up with and deal with what I'm pretty sure a lot of people would have passed on. Also Jay, dude.. I really hope you're not planning on leaving the Rep or Legasea, you are just as much as part of it as everyone, a GIANT part these days, not sure if you were planning on it when you put up there that y'all are looking for help. I kinda figured you may just need an assistant. We know all you do for both places and I'm sure you're totally swamped all the time. Just to let you know, YOU are totally appreciated❤ You've been filming with them for so long now, I can't count, We realize you've stepped up in major ways since Brian passed and I'm sure Lori counts on you so much. Just to let you know we see you!! We appreciate you and love you for all that you do!! You're just part of the Reptarium and Legasea😊 I'm sure Brian is so flippin proud of you.
Y'all take care, God Bless!! Can't wait to meet y'all soon. ❤️🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼

I have to agree with you lori those pythons deff have a burm pattern. I actually thought that's what you were holding at first till I saw the head. Love you guys so much really hoping one of Brian's breeders is still available next week when I get my bonus because I would be absolutly honored to have one of his animals in my collection. Can't wait love you guys so much and love watching lori she really gives us a glimpse into Brian's eyes and has really taken the ball and run with it with this entire project. Brian would be so proud of all of you and it's going to be amazing to drive all the way across the state to come see his Legasea!!!
