Crocodiles are easy. They try to kill and eat you. People are harder. Sometimes they pretend to be your friend first.

More quotes by Steve Irwin
The only animals I'm not comfortable with are parrots, but I'm learning as I go. I'm getting better and better at 'em. I really am.
Steve Irwin
I was born and raised with crocodiles they are a piece of cake. But kids are so ... unpredictable.
Steve Irwin
What television has done is it's given me a stepping stone to get to some other countries and really wild destinations throughout this world, which perhaps I would have had to struggle to get to.
Steve Irwin
Where I live if someone gives you a hug it's from the heart. I've had these blokes in Hollywood hug me trying to make out I'm their friend and as soon as I turn their back they take out a big bunch of knives and stab me in the back. I feel sorry for these people because they are so shallow.
Steve Irwin
You know, I'm Australian, and we have got the worst sense of humor. We are cruel to each other.
Steve Irwin
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.
Steve Irwin
I have a message for my fans. Whatever you want to do in this world, it is achievable. The most important thing that I've found, that perhaps you could use, is be passionate and enthusiastic in the direction that you choose in life, and you'll be a winner.
Steve Irwin
Snakes are just very instinctive to me. I've been playing with snakes since before I could walk. It doesn't matter where or what it is, from the biggest to the most venomous.
Steve Irwin
Crikey means gee whiz, wow! Crikey, mate. You're far safer dealing with crocodiles and western diamondback rattlesnakes than the executives and the producers and all those sharks in the big MGM building.
Steve Irwin
I get called an adrenaline junkie every other minute, and I'm just fine with that.
Steve Irwin
Yeah, I think it's an absolute disaster that Australia, the government, allowed kangaroo culling.
Steve Irwin
Take the crocodile, for example, my favorite animal. There are 23 species. Seventeen of those species are rare or endangered. They're on the way out, no matter what anyone does or says, you know.
Steve Irwin
Herein lies our problem. If we level that much land to grow rice and whatever, then no other animal could live there except for some insect pest species. Which is very unfortunate.
Steve Irwin
Every cent we earn from Crocodile Hunter goes straight back into conservation. Every single cent.
Steve Irwin
We've evolved from sitting back on our tripods and shooting wildlife films like they have been shot historically, which doesn't work for us.
Steve Irwin
scientific whaling, and other lies will be exposed and become atrocities of the past.
Steve Irwin
Where I live if someone gives you a hug it's from the heart.
Steve Irwin
I have no fear of losing my life - if I have to save a koala or a crocodile or a kangaroo or a snake, mate, I will save it.
Steve Irwin
We don’t own the planet Earth, we belong to it. And we must share it with our wildlife.
Steve Irwin
The message is simple: love and conserve our wildlife.
Steve Irwin
