The crazy is strong with this one.

"In 1997 he travelled to United States to try and live on a Red Indian reservation but the American government would not let him."

I was indulging in a guilty pleasure of reading the Daily Mail when I came across the same article.  I was going to post it here, but see someone else beat me to it.  ;)

The crazy is strong in this one.

...not to mention that anyone who's owned "hundreds of snakes" by age sixty probably isn't taking very good care of them.

It appears he has had the charges against him dropped.

A British man who has lived as an Apache Indian for the past 20 years will be allowed to keep badger paws and eagle wings in his home after charges against him were dropped.

Father-of-six Mangas Colaradas, 60, was due to stand trial tomorrow for keeping protected wild animal parts in his semi-detached home filled with the trappings of his Native American lifestyle.

But brave Mangas vowed to fight the court case on the grounds that it is part of his Apache lifestyle - even though he lives in a three-bed semi in Swansea, South Wales.
