Monday, 4th September 2006
Steve Irwin, best known as the Crocodile Hunter, has been killed while filming a documentary in Queensland's Great Barrier Reef.
Our condolences go out to the family of Steve Irwin who was killed in a tragic accident when a stringray's barb pierced his heart.
He did a lot to raise the awareness of the exotics we know and love. Will miss seeing him on TV.
