Robert Irwin, the famous son of the late Wildlife Warrior Steve Irwin, left his social media followers deeply impressed with a series of stunning pictures he snapped in the wild!
After mentioning on social media that he was heading to the Steve Irwin Wildlife Reserve on the Wenlock River in Far North Queensland to track and study crocodiles, Robert shared incredible close-up photos of some of the reptiles.
In the post, he wrote: 'Croc trip 2023 is off to an amazing start, we have already caught new animals and are now tracking them using incredible telemetry technology!'
'Studying crocs in the wild is vital to the survival of the species. The more we understand the secret world of the crocodile, the more we can do to protect them,' he added.
Many fans were shocked by the pictures Robert posted, drawn in by the stunning details in the textures and patterns of the crocodile's skin up close.
'The colour on that one is incredible!' One follower wrote.
'I love his colour and markings’, another agreed.
'Wow, that’s so cool. I never would have thought that’s what crocodile skin looks like up close,' someone else commented.
'I have a feeling they will be around millions of years after us, just as they were around millions of years before us,' one more shared.
Robert's fans also laughed at the contrast of his previous post: from photos of crocodiles to the video of him seemingly freaking out from a spider jumping in his tent. By the looks of it, one spider was enough to make the crocodile whisperer scream.
The video's caption read: ‘Just an average night at an Australian campsite…sound on.’
Let’s watch the video:
'Robert Irwin–who literally hand feeds crocodiles–screaming at a spider (Can’t blame him though, I think I’d rather feed the crocodile),' one fan joked in the comments.
'The fact that even you got scared is comforting,' another quipped.
Aside from his work with the Steve Irwin Wildlife Reserve, Robert is the ambassador for Earth Hour Australia, an initiative by the World Wildlife Fund, where he travels around the country and raises awareness of how everyone can make small yet powerful decisions that will help save the planet.
Robert's dedication to his wildlife conservation work is an excellent reminder of how a few small, committed individuals can impact the planet much bigger than we can ever imagine.
Robert’s work ensures we can keep these incredible creatures safe for future generations.
