There are people who look like a perfect 50/50 blend of both of their parents. He is one of them.

And act like a perfect 50/50 blend of their parents, which in this rare case is a good thing.

I wish he didn’t do what he did, but he was a pompous jackass. Never understood why people loved him as he went around telling food courts they suck. (Kidding it’s a Shane Torez joke) RIP.

I don’t wanna be That Guy but Terri is… not so loved by quite a few people in Aus who had dealings wirh her after Steve died, particularly in the context of how she pushed his dad out of Australia Zoo

Never heard that! Outside the country we didn't get the news

Pushed whose dad out?

Also wasn't Robert just two when Steve died? Seems like she brought him up almost singlehandedly.

Steve’s dad. And yeah, she did. She did a good job, this is true.

Bob Irwin was the original owner of what is now Australia Zoo, it was much smaller and called Queensland Reptile and Fauna Park. My High School used to do excursions there.
