Steve Irwin, one of the most amazing, inspirational people to have ever lived. A man who dedicated his life to wildlife conservation, raising awareness, educating, and actively saving millions of animals. A man who was loved by all! Or so we thought….
On the 22nd of February 2019 (Steve’s Birthday), a well-known animal rights activism organisation known as ‘PETA’, insulted the memory and legacy of this Australian Hero.(Below)
In response to a warming tribute to Steve Irwin created by Google, 'PETA' posted this-
“#SteveIrwin was killed while harassing a ray; he dangled his baby while feeding a crocodile & wrestled wild animals who were minding their own business. Today’s #GoogleDoodle sends a dangerous, fawning message. Wild animals are entitled to be left alone in their natural habitats.”

This disgraceful misrepresentation of an iconic Australian who spent his life protecting the land and animals he loved can not go unnoticed! PETA must be held accountable!
Steve deserves better!
