Crikey! you are dearly missed!


Watching the marathon tribute to Steve Irwin last night on animal Planet, it finally dawned on me what a great, funny, genuinue and intelligent conservationist he was-in short he was a rare breed. His passion and ethusiasm was so infectious i felt immediately connected to this man- watching him on TV, his larger-than-life persona it really is hard for me, and anyone for that matter, that the great Steve Irwin is dead- even using this word is difficult. Here's a man who really embraced life doing what he loved most while at the same, educating the public in the hope that one day, we could play a role in nature's conservation. He has forever changed the way people thought of animals. There will never be another who can match his personality, his passion and the profound effect he has on animal kingdom and to those who have watched him. Beyond that, he really was a very special man who lived and walked his cause. My most heartfelt condolences go to his wife Terri, his family and those who have worked with him. Carry on his good work and let's keep his spirit alive!

Hi, stumbled onto your blog thru flatmate's.

You have a nice tribute to Steve. Like you, I was terribly shocked when I heard he had that accident.

Truly, he was one of our best and most passionate animal naturalists.
