Steve Irwin, I think you are referring to, he was killed when a manta ray accidentally lanced him through the heart.

Yeah that's it.

I didn't know about a daughter, I don't think.

Peace!

The ray is peaceful, but its stinger hit Steve directly in his heart.

I loved it when he would be speaking to a dangerous creature and in his Aussie accent, would say "You're a'right, mate!"

I've watched several reruns.

I didn't realize he was dead.

To be honest I thought he was careless and set a poor example.
I mean I don't remember him emphasizing that he was a highly
skilled pro, and people should never try to do what he does.

Still, sometimes I couldn't look, but couldn't look away.

Peace!

Well, at least we have Bindi.

How old is she? Was she there when he got killed? God I hope not.

That is his daughter and she wasn't there when Steve died. She's 17 and is on "Dancing With the Stars". She did a prank one time and came out with a baby Python. I reckon that it's . . . like Father, like Daughter.

I used to see him on the telly, holding two dangerous snakes by the tail, they would be flipping around angrily, he would be looking into the camera saying how cross they were, and I would be shouting:

PUT THE SNAKES DOWN, STUPID!!!

AND RUNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

Caution, I am feral.

I love animals, even snakes I guess.

But I think I'm more a dog person.

Cats, not so much mainly due to my allergies.

I'm not sure I appreciate people using animals for TV stuff though.

I'm mixed on this Jen.

Peace!

Two things: Last night I saw Bindi and her Mom talking about Steve.
And today a camera went over 2 miles below the Ocean surface and found a previous undiscovered white octopus. Scientists have named the little guy "Casper".
