[concord]

o i would bet my life on it... but i would be proud to say my dad was steve the croc hunter...
but i will take it up with the pops and see if maybe next summer we can go for a week... or save up and go year after

I am not one to donate money to anything.

But if it is to help animals out, I would sell a testical.

You should donate a little cash to the zoo while you are there. I will, when I eventually go.

what a peice of ****.


He didnt promote Australia. He promoted Nature and wild animals.

Foreign Minister Alexander Downer, who used a photograph of his family at Australia Zoo for his official Christmas card last year, hailed Irwin for his work in promoting Australia through projects such as "G'Day LA," an Australian tourism and trade promotion week in Los Angeles in January.

"The minister knew him, was fond of him and was very, very appreciative of all the work he'd done to promote Australia overseas," Downer's spokesman Tony Parkinson said.

You jsut had to what?

Irwin never set out to promote Oz. He set out to help animals.

 

[cockroach]

blah, whatever.

dont you feel that is a bit callous? sure its just another person. but this is a person that taught the world about conservation with an unparalleled enthusiasm. he was the essence of a doting husband, father and CELEBRITY who inspired countless people.

I feel it is a tradgic loss to this planet. R.I.P.
