    Imagine the pressure on them. What if they didn’t actually want to work with animals?

      They could probably just do that. Just move to a different career path and show support for an animal activist group; they would get a chance to talk about a cause they support, talk about their father on camera, and honor what so many people remember him for.

      I am sure they have the pressure of expectation on the, but from how genuine they come across, they were inspired and shared their father’s and mother’s (don’t forget her) love for animals.

      I am not sure that can be faked so convincingly.

      This, so much. Every time they get posted I just feel very uncomfortable by this. Just because no one is holding a gun to their head, doesn’t mean that they don’t feel obligated to keep their father alive as it were. I honestly just can’t believe that this is genuine.

        If you watch them talk about, and work on this stuff, it is beyond clear they are happy/satisfied.

        You’re projecting uncertainty on some very certain people.

      Cool. This isn’t reddit. Moreover, I seriously doubt the family themselves are doing anything on reddit. Steve Irwin had an extremely popular show and made an impact on a lot of people. Chances are its just those people sharing love about someone who is gone.

        The family isn’t doingut, they pay people to do pr for them. If people online want to post ads to communities, just label them. Reddit or soon to be a ActivityPub instance.

    Hopefully they treat wild animals better than their dad did.

    Unpopular opinion I know, but every episode that dude was intentionally pissing off wild animals to get their reaction for the camera.

    Fuck I couldn’t stand Steve, and I don’t care for the children. The kids are better with the animals at least. He was an irritating, reckless fuckwit.

    The Irwins are like Fosters. Australian export that many of us don’t enjoy.
