It's really a shame. He was a young guy. He was only 44. I will miss seeing him on television. I really enjoyed it when he would come on the late-night shows and bring different animals on the shows.

I like Jack Hanna too. He does the same thing on late-night television as Steve Irwin. They would both come on and bring all kinds of exotic animals. I believe Hanna is the director of the Columbus Zoo. Irwin was a zoo director in Australia.

that's so sad....when he first showed on animal planet in the 90's I watched all the time...nothing funnier. My roommates and I used to drink every time his wife almost got him hurt dropping alligators and such; he provided much entertainment and was an ambassador for his country and the animals he loved.
