 Steve Irwin: Croc hunter's 4-year-old son unfazed by snake bite
Steve Irwin, Crocodile Hunter's 4-year-old son was not alarmed when he was recently bitten by a baby boa constrictor, his widow, Terri said.
Steve Irwin's widow said on Monday at an appearance at FAO Schwarz with her two children to promote a new line of toys that her son picked one of them up and it bit him on the finger, and he was so proud to have copped his first hit.
"He said, I hope it wasn't venomous,' so I assured Robert I wouldn't actually let him play with venomous snakes," she added.
Steve Irwin's wife said their 9-year-old daughter, Bindi, was first bitten by a snake when she was 18 months old.
The girl, who is featured in the Discovery Kids Channel show "Bindi the Jungle Girl," posed for cameras with a new action figure in her likeness.
Bindi, who was signing action figure toys of her late father said, "It's every little girl's dream to have an exact look-alike doll. It's amazing".
Steve Irwin, known through his nature TV series as a wrangler of crocodiles and snakes, died in 2006 at the age of 44 from a stingray's barbed tail during an underwater documentary shoot.
Steve Irwin provoked an international outcry in 2004 after being filmed holding his then 1-month-old son while feeding a snapping crocodile. |
