Crocodile Warrior


"Friends of Steve Irwin say the Crocodile Hunter would be horrified by the recent slaughter of stingrays in south-east Queensland.

The Department of Fisheries is investigating the slaughter of at least 10 stingrays at Hervey Bay and Deception Bay, north of Brisbane.

Irwin was killed last week when a stingray barb pierced his heart.

Irwin's close friend and business manager John Stainton has condemned the attacks."

Come on, guys. Leave those poor stingrays alone, please!

If you want to contribute your respect to Steve, come to his memorial, which will be held next Wednesday, Sept 20th at the family's Australia Zoo. The service will begin at 9 AM (AEST) at the zoo's Crocoseum. People who wish to attend will have to make a donation to Steve's Wildlife Warriors fund.

You could also watch it live on television across Australia, America and Asia. So check your local listings.
