What a wonderful man.

Wow, I still can't beleive it. You would think he was pretty much invincible.

I feel SO bad for his wife and children. Who's going to teach Bob and Bindi about what he did now?

Every living creature whose world he touched...whether human, herp or any other species. It's up to all of us to continue his conservation efforts in whatever way we can, and honor his memory by doing so.

K~

Shaun - I'm sure Teri, the zoo staff and those who were close friends to him will help teach his kids. Atleast I sure hope so. I hope those two grow up and follow some what in his foor steps.

Read earlier today that Steve's last moments will be televised - at his own request, so he had contingency plans made for something like this happening. I wonder if Terri will narrate his last moments.

Thinking about him last night, I could not have imagined Steve growing old and infirm and incapable of doing what he loved so much. Going out of this world in the way he did he'll be forever young.

I read on the BBC forum yesterday some of the many tributes to him. It was amazing and heart-warming that in a world that is torn by wars and violence, one man could unite so many people from different countries and faiths, people who at the moment are otherwise enemies. In his passing, perhaps he's shown that there is hope for a peaceful world.

i thought i'd throw in my two cents to add to everyone else.

as cheesy as they can be, i loved watching his shows. there always seemed to be a great mix of excitement, natural history, and conservation in every one of his programs.

even though i grew up 'herping' and hanging out outdoors, his show was the first to really drive me to the level of appreciation that i'm at today...

rest in peace steve

I'm sure he had a will made up and everything already set aside just incase something like this would happen. I was wondering if they were going to show his last moments. I mean in a way I thought they would, but in another way in my opinion I'd like to remember Steve as a fast moving, happy go getter man who had a perfect family, a great great life that so many people can only dream and wiish of and a man with so much love who seemed so invincible. I's rather not watch his last moments here on Earth.

Yeah, but Bindi even said she wants to be like her daddy. It's real sad that it would be OTHER people teaching her to be like her father. :(

Yes I know. It will be sad for that part, but remember she is part of her father so I'm sure it will come natural to her.
