Home of the Crocodile Hunter

Corinne, Jordan, Etienne and I visited the Australia Zoo yesterday! It has been a personal dream to visit Steve Irwin’s Zoo since I was a young girl. I like to consider the Irwin family and my own family to be the basis of my studies and future career in wildlife conservation. I remember night after night sitting around the TV watching this crazy Aussie chasing after any and every species he could get his hands on, even if it was deadly. He has been an inspiration and hero throughout my life. Despite his death I see his family continues to carry his legacy.

The zoo was great we saw everything from Aussie Wildlife to worldwide species. We also attended the Animal Planet Crocoseum to see the staff hand feed crocodiles. (I remember seeing the Crocoseum being built on the Crocodile Hunter when I was little). The experience was amazing and I loved every second of it.
