    Robert is a spitting image of his dad (in both looks and mannerisms) and I know Steve would be proud of the man that he has become

      To be fair, I prefer Robert to Steve. His passion is there, but much more grounded than the somewhat over the topness of his father. There's something truly pure about Robert.

      I could see his dad having the same reaction to the condom joke. It's incredible the seeing the similarities between them when they didn't really get to spend a lot of time together. Maybe it's Bob Irwin that sort of influenced both Steve and his kids so that they would have this wonderful sort of persona, though I don't want to say it that way because I think this actually is how Steve was and his kids are. Something about the environment they were raised in is really something special.

      I got to be honest with you it’s not that hard. Many in shape young people can do that. Many older people can too if they workout.

He's stinking adorable! And it makes my heart happy because part of Steve lives on in the love Robert had for his job!❤❤❤❤

Robert and the rest of his family are an inspiration and when the world loses people like Sir David Attenborough, I'm hopeful, at least, there's those in the wings as enthusiastic about all things wildlife to push for a better world!

      My mum is terrified of all animals other than dogs. I don't get it, coz I'm into all animals like my dad. However she was a teacher for over 30 years and could master a classroom in seconds, something most people would be terrified to attempt. Some people are just better with other people and find animals too unrelatable and unpredictable because they don't understand them. I find animals very predictable, but my mum is both terrified of them hurting her or her hurting them and just wants them away from her.
