The hunter becomes the hunted

Woke up this morning to the sad news that Steve Irwin, a.k.a. the "Crocodile Hunter" had been killed by a Stingray (that's the aquatic creature and not the puppet programme from Thunderbird's creator Gerry Anderson).  I guess that there was always the risk that this sort of thing was going to happen, as he did have this tendency to hang out with quite dangerous animals most of the time. 

I'll never forget the skit of him on South Park, where he used to "creep up behind this crocodile and stick me finger up his ass".

Sad news..

Yeah very sad, he did a lot for conservation and environmental education. Plus his zoo in Aus was one of the best i've seen (both from an animal care and educational perspective).
