What Is Jimmy Riffle Doing Now?

In April 2023, Jimmy Riffle was with videographer Corey Besteder in Orlando, Florida visiting an animal park. He hasn’t stopped working with animals.

Jimmy is running Scales Tails And Teeth that he co-owns with Sara Barber. Scales Tails and Teeth was started by Jimmy in the hopes that he could share his love and appreciation of wildlife with people (children and adults) all over the country. The organization provides guided tours, animal interactions, private parties, school field trips, summer camp field trips, and several other services. The park has reptiles, exotic mammals, farm animals, and birds.

Jimmy started his career volunteering/working with animals at The Native Village in Hollywood, FL. From the age of 11, he was trained by Mike “Skeet” Johns to respect and appreciate all wildlife. He later went on to star in Animal Planet’s hit tv show Gator Boys.

Jimmy still travels and educates the public, but he was able to fulfill a lifelong dream to open a small-scale educational animal park in Marion County, Florida.

Why Did Jimmy Riffle Leave The Gator Boys?

The 2012 series Gator Boys is set in Florida and aired on Animal Planet. Alligator catching is something that the cast members of this specific show are professionals at, and they travel the state doing it. The process is far from easy, and it frequently comes with unpleasant surprises.

Jimmy was a prominent figure for the show however he left the team in 2017. He cited the reason for leaving the show as exhaustion and burnout. And the rest of the team is also doing their own things.

Are Jimmy Riffle And Sara Barber Married?

No, Jimmy Riffle and his co-star Sara Barber are not married. The couple reportedly got engaged in March 2018 after Jimmy proposed to Sara during their Belize trip. They dated for more than five years before they got engaged and were reportedly associated with each other since 2011.

However, they broke off their engagement now in 2023.

Sara started her career by volunteering at the Native Village in Hollywood, Florida, at the young age of 10. Working here under many people, she furthered her knowledge and worked with a variety of native and exotic animals.

Sara then went on from there into the restaurant industry where she further honed in on her people and social skills which ultimately helped with her career in the animal world by giving her the necessary tools to educate the public. She then reconnected with Jimmy years later and joined the crew Gator Boys which aired on Animal Planet.

This is what she has been doing since and jointly operates Scales Tails and Teeth.
