Steve's legacy lives on, through his various conservation organisations and his family, who still own and run Australia Zoo. “We want to make sure that his message of wildlife and conservation continues,” his daughter, Bindi, said. “Because he was the world’s greatest conservationist and we never want that message to die.”
I'm sure Steve Irwin's reaction the the sting ray that accidentally killed him would be to say something like "I'm sorry I scared you, I just wanted everyone to see how awesome you are."
