El cazador de cocodrilos

Crikey...injecting a much needed shot in the arm of nature documentaries, Steve Irwin has burst onto the scene like crazed bandicoot. Steve Irwin and his lovely wife Terri head into the bush every week and traumatize innocent forest creatures to the great amusement of the television audience. Steve's hands-on approach to zoology is highly entertaining to watch, while at the same time informative. Granted, steve is a diesel mechanic, and holds no degree of any kind in biology. What he does have is a lifetime of experience with animals and utterly no regard for his own personal safety. "Watch now as I stick my head in this snake infested burrow...crikey, it bit my eye! No worries..." It's as much comedy as it is science. Steve Irwin is the Lee Majors of nature show hosts. I truly believe that Steve Irwin could defeat any land animal in hand to hand combat...including Rowdy Roddy Piper. If any one person is guaranteed of having their grisly demise captured on film, it's Steve Irwin. But until that dark day, we will continue to watch, dumfounded, the Crocodile Hunter. Peace.

I must say, this guy had it all with animals. My eldest son, who's now is 11, loves Steve so much and wish to work with him one day. but because of this day my two son (11 and 9) are now very emotional upset over the death of Steve. As my eldest son was too also a love of reptiles animals and so on fourth. His interested all started when he was only 3 years old. He would walk around with big blue tongeslizard on each shoulders and patting it with confidence. He just an image of Steve in a lot of ways. But because of this happened to Steve and his death has hit hard on the boys as they wanted to meet him at the gold coast one day as i was intended to take them with me to see him.

Well I wish to give my sympathy to the Irwinn's family, his wife and dearest loved children. Who will suffer at great loss to their dad their "hero" that will remained lived forever.

I felt to write this, as due not knowing where i could send a email to the Irwinn's in direct as the boys wanted very much to say sorry and hope that the wonderful memories is shared of him forever.

thanks guys and the work of Steve series and others has been amazing experience and taught us to enjoyed the thing's in life what you do best and loved most of all.

Steve and Terri rule! I love this show, not only for it's entertainment value but for it's educational value as well. Steve and Terri are great role models for kids. And they seem to have a great marriage and a happy family. In a world filled with divorces and broken homes it is so nice to see an example of a good family. I just hope Steve dose not get killed on one of his adventures! Croc Hunter is the best!

The first time I watched "Crocodile Hunter", Steve was in the jungles looking at elephants up close. The elephant noticed him and she started to run after Steve. He made it out ok, but damn was that ever entertaining!!! He knows how to make people sit up on their seats. And later on in that episode he climbs up a tree to get a snake. While he's up there hanging on for his dear life he breaks off the branch with the snake on it, the snake was venemous but he didn't care he brought it down to show it to us. This show, after one episode left me amazed.

I was sad to see this show never won any awards because this is the most entertaining show on television. He risks his life in every episode for us. It makes you laugh so hard you'll pee your pants or it'll leave amazed that you can't wait until the next show. Steve and Terri are the greatest people in showbiz!

If you are interested in animals, I implore you to watch this show. The hosts, Australin Steve Irwin and his American wife, Terri have such an intensity and passion about animals and animal conservation that even reptiles like snakes, previously though of as scary and slimy, really do seem slightly 'gorgeous'! They really are amazing people and a credit to the animal-loving society, if you love animals you'll love this show.
