Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin dies

Igor, don't get me wrong-I agree with you regarding his value as a conservationist, etc., and he was always entertaining and charming. For those who don't know better, or for kids especially, they could have gotten the idea that the way he interacted with wildlife was OK for everyone to emulate.

true true..... this could spark a whole new round of discussions, parental roles in tv viewing, media censorship, parental control of thier children in general....etc... as was stated above I really am sad to see someone, who so obviously loved our planet, gone. May you rest in peace Steve Irwin.

The old disclaimer:

"Don't try this yourself, I'm a trained professional with years of experience".

Kids immitate what they see.....
Still, a great loss.

The wildlife community has lost a true hero and conservationist. May God bless him as well as his family.
