Steve Irwin died in September 2006 via a bull stingray shock to his chest (viaBritannica).
Irwin is survived by his wife, Terri, and his children, Bindi and Robert.
The series premiered in the zookeeper’s homeland in ‘96 and then debuted for international audiences in ‘97.
Irwin’s father was a herpetologist and acclimated him to handling animals at a young age.
Between this park and his television series, Irwin racked up a considerable net worth before his untimely passing.
This comes as no surprise given how popular both the Australia Zoo and his television series became.
Irwin was only growing increasingly popular and taking more opportunities in the lead up to his sudden passing.
Steve’s children are also racking up their own considerable fortunes.
We know that Steve Irwin would be incredibly proud of everything his children are accomplishing.
