If I could bring one person back to life, it would be Steve Irwin. Ever since I was small, I remember that I used to love watching his show on animal planet. All the time he would have that broad Australian accent that I would try and mock him. It never ceased to stop and fascinate me with wonders of how he could wrestle a crocodile with such little protection. As I watch him wrestle in TV, I would follow him and wrestle my pillow making sound effects that was clearly unnecessary otherwise. He is a true hero to everyone who loves the natural habitat and wildlife. As he is being filmed, he makes an outstanding performance in the timing of the event and plays along with his interesting skills of cautiously sneaking up to the crocodile and energetically launching himself wrestling the crock with his might.
Steve Irwin owns a zoo that he named “Australia Zoo” in 1992 in which it was the same year where he appeared in a one- off reptile and wildlife special for television. He met his wife, Terri Raines at a park, while performing a demonstration. Now Terri Raines is considered to be in parts of the show that Steve performs. Under Irwin’s leadership, the operations improved to create a zoo, the television series, and the International Crocodile Rescue.
In the year of 2006, he died from being struck by a stingray’s barb while filming in Australia’s Great Barrier Reef. In his honor, the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society ship was named after Steve as “MV Steve Irwin.” In 2006, Irwin provided his voice for the 2006 animated film Happy Feet, as an elephant seal named Trev. This film was dedicated to Irwin, as he died during post- production.
In memory of him, I will remember of him as my favorite crocodile hunter that gave many enjoyments to kids throughout the world, being a hero and admiration of others that would soon realize the reason why he loved his job with passion.
