The Irwin family continues Steve Irwin’s conservation legacy at Australia Zoo. Robert Irwin, Steve’s son, recently shared a striking parallel with his late father on Instagram. In a video, he faces a python, recreating a moment when his father was bitten years ago. “Déjà vu. Years apart, my father and I were both bitten by carpet pythons,” Robert noted.

This shared experience emphasizes their commitment to wildlife. In the footage, Robert handles the snake with composure, echoing Steve’s fearless approach. Despite being bitten, both men, driven by their love for animals, proceed with the rescue.

Steve Irwin’s wife, Terri, and their children, Bindi and Robert, uphold his conservation efforts at the Australia Zoo. While Steve passed away in 2006, his legacy lives on through his family’s dedication to protecting Australia’s biodiversity. Robert, now an adult, honors his father’s memory, ensuring the Irwin legacy thrives.
