Crocodile Hunter and His Son

If his father could see him now, he would surely be as proud as punch. 

The son of late Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin, eight-year-old Robert Irwin, has been spotted feeding crocodiles at the 'Crocoseum' at Australia Zoo in Beerwah, Queensland.

And it is clear from these pictures the youngster is as at ease with the creatures as his famous father.

The eight year old appears to have a natural touch when it comes to his father's favourite creatures. 

Steve was killed in September 2006 after getting stung by a stingray while filming in Australia's Great Barrier Reef. He was setting up to shoot ocean reef footage at the time for a show that would include segments with his daughter Bindi. The Irwin family have always vowed to carry on Steve's work. Last year his 12-year-old daughter, Bindi, was promoting a new line of books in her Wildlife Adventures series.

Steve we always miss you !!!
