Robert’s post also got the attention of many Steve fans. One follower wrote, “I always say he has a heart of gold, it’s so true. I can’t think of a better way to describe it. It is heartwarming and enlightening to see someone who cares so much about nature and all its inhabitants. The world needs more people like him.”

And another fan wrote, “An amazing man, and an amazing family. Your father gave me a lot of hope when I was little – that others would also treat animals well and respect them as living beings. Steve will always be a legend and even on his show you can see how much he adores you & Bindi 🖤”
Children’s group “The Wiggles” also shared a tribute to Steve on Instagram
A special addition to the day will be held at the Australia Zoo where original bandmates The Wiggles will perform in Steve’s honour. The group of children wrote a song called “Crocodile Hunter” and a video was recorded with Steve, his wife Terri and Bindi in 2002. The group shared their own tribute, with the help of Robert, on their Instagram page.
It’s been 16 years since Steve died. On 4 September 2006 while filming a new program off the coast of Port Douglas in Queensland, a stingray stabbed him in the heart and he died of a heart attack. His family has continued his legacy and conservation efforts, keeping his memory alive and well.
