Its been a sad time in the world of Wildlife and Conservation with the untimely death of Steve Irwin 'crocodile hunter'. RIP Steve and long may your ideas and tireless work go on in this world.

Six weeks ago i was lucky to have been in Aussie Zoo for one of his last appearance there, it was also his daughters birthday.

A tragic loss.. his poor family. RIP. I suppose it may be some consolation that he died doing something he loved.

Sad photos.

It's a shame and a loss. It's nice you have such pictures and can look back with them.

Excellent shots, I agree with you about catching him at his happiest with his family. Certainly looks like a excellent father. Shame for his children to lose their father at such a young age... Thanks for posting.

nice shots. I always loved watching his show. As said, at least he went doing what he loved.

He did amazing things for wildlife. I think he was a brilliant man, who also knew how to have fun!!

i want to wait a few days before posting them. And yes he did have a great excitement to life...

lets hope his thread allows people to be able to see Steve happy and highlights the ongoing work that he has put in place..
