The death of Steve Irwin aka "the crocodile hunter" at age 44 while filming stingrays in the far North of Queensland for his Daughters TV show has shocked a lot of people. Apparently he was struck by a stingrays poisoned barbs which punctured his heart. A rescue helicopter and paramedics were rushed out to an island near where his boat was but he was dead on their arrival.
some of the stingrays found in this place are up to and over 2metres (6 1/2 foot) across the wings. Queensland & Australian wildlife have lost one of their best protectors and the country itself an 'Icon'! Cliff Last edited by cliff; 04-09-06 at 13:24.
