after being stung by a stingray while filming a wildlife documentary. Bindi was 8 years old at the time while her brother Robert was 2."Grandpa Crocodile, I know you would’ve been the most incredible grandfather because you were such an extraordinary dad," she wrote. "Thank you for being an amazing guardian angel for Grace."
Despite Steve's death happening before her daughter was born, Bindi has introduced her to the "Crocodile Hunter" through documentaries."The Crocodile Hunter" was remembered in loving social media posts by his wife and children. "He would’ve been a good, good grandpa," she said while pregnant with her daughter. "I don’t think we would’ve ever seen our daughter. He would’ve just whisked her away into the zoo, and it would’ve been perfect. But it is so nice that we’ll be able to introduce her to her grandfather through all of the documentaries. It’s really special.
"My dad was the first person to create the term ‘Wildlife Warrior,’" Bindi previously told The Bump. "Being a Wildlife Warrior means to stand up and speak for those who cannot speak for themselves. We’ve been referring to our daughter as our Baby Wildlife Warrior. I know in my heart that she will forge her own path to make our planet a better place.
