Steve Irwin BIO »Stephen Robert Irwin (22 February 1962 – 4 September 2006) most commonly known as Steve Irwin, was the owner and manager of the Australia Zoo at Beerwah, Queensland, Australia. He was best known for the unconventional nature documentary series The Crocodile Hunter. hide I would never blame an animal if it bit me, that is for sure, because I’m at fault, not them ... I heal so quickly, I tell you what, if you cut my arm off I would grow a new one. In my life dealing with wildlife, I've been gored, clawed, chomped, bitten, savaged, jumped on, whacked, peed on, even groped! And every single time, it's been my fault. If I get bitten, I've made the mistake; I knew what I was up against when I went in on that animal. And it's been a giant learning curve for me. Yeah, for some reason parrots have to bite me. That's their job. I don't know why that is. They've nearly torn my nose off. I've had some really bad parrot bites. I've probably saved thousands of people's lives with my educational message on snake bites, how to get in around venomous anything. Yeah, I'm a thrill seeker, but crikey, education's the most important thing.
