This petition is in recognition of the accomplishments of Steve "The Crocodile Hunter" Irwin.
We recognize Steve "The Crocodile Hunter" Irwin as someone more than just a colorful character who wrestles crocodiles on Animal Planet. We consider him to be the world's foremost Wildlife Warrior.
He founded the Steve Irwin Conservation Foundation which is at the forefront of protecting habitats and wildlife, creating rescue programs for some of Australia's most beloved creatures, as well as the leading in scientific research that will help save endangered species for generations to come.
Steve helped found the International Crocodile Rescue. For decades he has been on the front lines of crocodile management programs in Queensland, and around the world. Steve does everything in his power to keep rogue crocodiles alive and well, including sacrificing himself.
In memory of his wonderful mother, Steve founded the Lyn Irwin Memorial Fund. All donations go directly to the Iron Bark Station Wildlife Rehabilitation Center with 3,450 acres of wildlife sanctuary. He also owns 83,000 acres of endangered Acacia Woodland in southwestern Queensland called Westbore and started the Brigalow Belt Conservation Project. Thats not all. Steve is buying up enormous portions of Australia for the sole purpose of conserving habitats for wildlife.
Steve Irwin is responsible for starting endangered species breeding programs for the Southern Cassowary, Koalas, Fijian Crested Iguanas, Bilby Rhinoceros Iguanas, Galapagos Giant Land Tortoises, Aldabran Giant Land Tortoises, Mary River Turtles, Peregrine Falcons, Komodo Dragons, and Irwins Turtles -- a newly-discovered breed named after Steve himself. He has also established breeding programs for such vulnerable species as Tasmanian Devils, Wombats, Echidnas, Red Kangaroos, Asian Small-Clawed Otters, Queensland Womas, Death Adders, Rusty Monitors, Canopy Goannas, Yakka Skinks, Reticulated Pythons, Burmese Pythons, Australian Green Pythons, Sea Snakes, Black Cockatoos, Jabirus, Curlews, and his beloved Saltwater Crocodiles.
Steve has helped fund field studies for scores of species of crocodilians, lizards, snakes, mammals, and birds in order to help stave off their habitat destruction and learn exactly what it is those species need to survive. Even today we are learning things we never knew about all sorts of animals, all because of Steve Irwin's work. He is also responsible for the rescue and well-being of thousands upon thousands of animals from all around Australia. His devotion of wildlife and conservation cannot be questioned.
But the most precious of all his accomplishments is Steve Irwin's ability to educate and entertain. He has single-handedly raised conservation awareness across the globe. His message has literally gotten to millions of people in many different languages. For that, we will always be grateful.
Furthermore, we declare our condemnation for the destruction of any Crocodilian species for taxidermy, jewelry, handbags, belts, or any other product. We recognize that one can be a hunter without killing, as in a treasure hunter. We love "The Crocodile Hunter", but we abhor Crocodile murderers.
We, the Undersigned, do hereby pledge our total support to Steve Irwin, and recognize him -- for now and for always -- as the world's only true Crocodile Hunter.

- The planet needs more people like Steve Irwin and the Australia Zoo! They repect the planet! They feel that all animals have a right to life, and without them the planet will die! I have no repect for people who latch on to good, in hopes of making money off of a good name! Those who kill animals for money are not true conservationists! You will never be Steve Irwin--you obviously don't have what it takes!!
