Nothing wrong with carrying on the legacy. His dad was a great man doing good for animals

If it's become his dream also then more power to him. If he gets rich and famous as a result, so what?

Just the way he's popped up on late night tv several times in the past few months... he doesn't seem genuine to me.

He is only 13, may not be totally his choice.

Certainly seems a bit disingenuous compared to the rest of his family

if snooki and kardashians can get rich for nothing, so can the croc hunter's boy, imo

but at least this kid is doing something positive

Crikey!

You know I remember watching Steve Irwin before he got famous and had a rather amateur camera crew. He would do a lot more daring stuff than he did in is later days. Like dive head first into a swamp and tackle croc's on their own turf. It was on some odd channel at like 2-3am. I told all my work buddies and they thought I was crazy, fast forward a couple years and Steve was on Animal Planet and making headlines.

Also I don't think it if fair to place any of the Irwins in the same category as the Kardashians or Snooki. I hope the best for him and his family, I thought Bindi would have been the break out. Stevs dad is a good man too.

The kid seems pretty genuine to me. Whether that "Steve Irwin" mannerism is something that's rubbed off from Dad, or its coached to win fanfare.............I don't know. I think he has a good tv personality especially for a 13yo.

Now, his mother and sister, I find annoying.
