The Death Of The Crocodile Hunter - Steve Irwin

By: Buddy Smith Home | News-and-Society


Steve Irwin is an Australian television personality. But more than that, he is a wildlife expert and a conservationist. He is working on the proper care of the natural environment, especially of the animals. He is called The Crocodile Hunter because of his show, with the same title. It is an international wildlife documentary series hosted by him and his wife, Terri Irwin. But too sad for all the crocodiles, the nature, his family and friends, the entire Australian nation and the whole world, Steve was killed.


The crocodile hunter fatally died while filming another wildlife documentary in Australia's Great Barrier Reef. A stingray stabbed him on the chest while snorkeling at the Batt Reef. He had accidentally boxed the animal which caused it to panic and barb its tail. Not too long, Steve was not breathing anymore and announced dead. The incident was caught on the camera by Steve's cameraman. The Queensland police said that it is stingray's instinct to defend after Steve getting to close to the marine animal. Interestingly, the documents' supposed title was â€Ocean's Deadliestâ€, and the Crocodile Hunter met one of them. It cost his dear life. It cost the worldwide mourning and grievances. It is an accident that nobody expect. The legendary Steve Irwin put his life at stake and let us see how nature is gonna get back what we take from them.


After a week of Steve Irwin's death, several stingrays were fund dead and mutilated on the beaches of Queensland. Authorities suppose that this was done by Irwin's fans as an act of revenge. But people close to the late naturalist insist that Steve Irwin, even if he's already dead, would never allow this thing.


For a couple of weeks, the whole country was so gloomy, in sympathy to the death of an icon. Australia was in a week-long shock and distress because of Steve Irwin's death. The only positive thought was that he died where he want to. This death is by nature and for nature. An ideal death for a wildlife advocate. On all forms of media, radio, TV, newspaper and internet, the hottest topic is about the Crocodile Hunter's fatal death. Even the international scene showed their compassion to this tragic event by making memorials and tribute to Australia's greatest son. The Animal Planet in America renamed the Discovery's world headquarters in Silver Spring, Montgomery County, Maryland, U.S., to the "Steve Irwin Memorial Sensory Garden". The TV show also aired The Crocodile Hunter Diaries marathon to pay tribute to Irwin. In India, A crocodile research centre in Neyyar Wildlife Sanctuary was named by the Kerala government after Steve Irwin. It is now called the Steve Irwin Crocodile Rehabilitation and Research Centre.


This death by Steve Irwin is a lesson for all of Australian abusing nature. A warning to those who have an Australia visa planning to visit the beauty of Australia's wildlife. Most of all, this is Steve's message to the whole world. All he want to say is that nature is naturally stronger than us. There is no way that we can beat them forever. There is a time for a setback on human. And that time is has long been started.
