Ke mana tumpahnya kuah, kalau tidak ke nasi.

Sebagaimana besar rasa kecintaan mendiang bapanya, mendiang Steve Irwin, terhadap haiwan begitulah Robert Irwin diibaratkan.

Sudahlah wajah mereka seakan sama, Robert yang merupakan seorang pencinta haiwan persis ayahnya sedari kecil lagi, turut mengambil keputusan untuk mengikuti jejak langkah ayahnya dan kini sedang menguruskan sebuah zoo bersama ibu dan kakaknya.

Happy #InternationalCheetahDay ????Cheetahs have been a special part of @australiazoo for many years and one of Dad’s favourites. One of the fondest memories of cheetahs was when dad used to tie a plush toy to the back of his motorbike and they would chase him around and absolutely loved it… to this day our original cheetahs still get excited when they hear the sound of an engine! Such remarkable cats.
