The animals of the planet have lost one of their greatest champions. Steve Irwin, the Crocodile Hunter, was killed yesterday.
"Irwin, 44, had been filming a documentary off Port Douglas in northern Queensland when he was killed by a stingray barb through the heart. He was rushed to hospital by helicopter, but he died en route." (article 1 & 2)
I still can't believe it, and the sadness I feel for him, his family and the animals he loved so much has caught me a little off guard. I haven't seen his movie or even an episode of his show in years, but I knew that he was doing something important, something that too few people do and I have infinite respect and admiration for him. I'm really going to miss that guy, and I know I'm not alone.
"He left this world in a peaceful and happy state of mind. He would have said, 'Crocs rule.'"
