Creepy, Crawly, Bitey, Stingy: Wildman YouTuber ‘Coyote’ Peterson

Podcast Season 3 Episode 1
Recorded: July 29, 2021

If you don’t want to touch it or see it, odds are Coyote Peterson has picked it up and been stung by it.

Nathanial Peterson — aka “Coyote” on his wildly successful YouTube channel — is perhaps best known for his quote, “AAAAAAAGGGGGHHH!”

That’s because, on dozens of occasions, Peterson has been bitten and stung by some of Earth’s most foreboding and frightening creatures: Gila monsters, giant centipedes, bullet ants, and so many others.

But the shock videos that made him one of YouTube’s most viewed personalities belie an experienced nature lover dedicated more to educating, not entertaining.

Peterson shares his most frightening and painful experiences, but also dives into his life as YouTube celebrity — how did he get there, and is it really all it’s cracked up to be? He also recently partnered with eBay to launch the ReOpen Ready campaign.
