More quotes by 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
We don’t own the planet Earth, we belong to it. And we must share it with our wildlife.
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

Steve Irwin
We humans still have a long way to go with learning to live harmoniously with our environment and its wildlife.
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
You know, I'm Australian, and we have got the worst sense of humor. We are cruel to each other.
Steve Irwin
Every cent we earn from Crocodile Hunter goes straight back into conservation. Every single cent.
Steve Irwin
If we can teach people about wildlife, they will be touched. Share my wildlife with me. Because humans want to save things that they love.
Steve Irwin
So, my tactic with conservation of apex predators is to get people excited and take them to where they live.
Steve Irwin
scientific whaling, and other lies will be exposed and become atrocities of the past.
Steve Irwin
The message is simple: love and conserve our wildlife.
Steve Irwin
I get called an adrenaline junkie every other minute, and I'm just fine with that.
Steve Irwin
Yeah, I'm a thrill seeker, but crikey, education's the most important thing.
