    The world lost something special when Steve died. It's great to see how his kids share his same passion for wildlife. I can't help but imagine what it would be like for these kids to share these experiences with their Dad.

      @@sloth8632 while you may be correct, it's a cynical point of view to express on a video celebrating this young conservationist's 18th birthday at the facility he and his family are dedicated to. All of the media training in the world would not be able to replicate the genuine joy Robert and Bindi show in the work they do, and how they interact with people. Don't forget, while both children have been in the spotlight from time to time doing media appearances, they have also been raised in a bit of a bubble with their parents deep involvement in the Australia Zoo. Even after losing Steve, Terri continued their work, including their children, what a wonderful way to grow up.

You seem to blame Steve Irwin for the revenge killings of stingrays by ignorant individuals because a stingray killed him. But then, in the same paragraph, you state, “Steve wouldn't have wanted people to murder innocent rays because of this incident.” Contradict yourself much?
      Just because Steves's unfortunate death led to the killings of stingrays doesn't mean he shouldn't get the praise he most definitely deserves. He was a great example of humanity's strengths we all strive to achieve, making his love of nature and especially his family even more poignant.

    I used to live very close to Australia Zoo way back when before Robert was even born and I remember meeting Steve at the zoo as a 6 yr old who was too shy to talk to him directly. But I remember watching the interaction he had with my dad who wasn't too shy to call out to him and shake his hand. The way they had such a casual chat and how genuine and thankful Steve was is unforgettable. Seeing Robert now, all grown up, is insane. The absolute spitting image of his father: looks, mannerisms and soul. Just raw kindness. Happy B'day Rob!

    Lump in the throat seeing Steve on the montage, can just imagine the joy he'd get out of doing what he loved next to bindi and Robert as the amazing adults they've become, so sad and as a massive fan of Steve, I like all his fans, miss him massively, so can only imagine how hard it is for his loved ones. RIP Steve. Truly one of the greatest humans ever to walk the earth.

    Every time one of these videos pops up and Steve is shown I always tear up. The world lost a beautiful human being that day, and these kids lost an amazing and lovingly passionate father. As a father of 3 young kids now myself, It breaks my heart to think of what they could have had if Steve had never passed. Im so glad the Zoo Family are keeping his spirit so alive through memory, and that they remind Bindi and Robert of their fathers unconditional love of all things, especially them, so regularly.
    I'm a Kiwi and have only been to Austalia Zoo once when I was 4 when we visited Australia. I would happily return to support their cause as many times as I could if I was to visit again.

    Robert looks like his dad so much it’s incredible. The world may have lost one of the best animal experts but we got two amazing people who picked it up in his leave. Amazing young ones doing what they do best; loving animals. Robert and Bindi are keeping Steve’s passions alive and I’m so happy for that.

    Steve always revered his dad as the best. Robert does the same for steve. When Robert can go further than both!!! Terri is an amazing mom btw.
