Robert Irwin is a famous zookeeper, animal photographer, author, and tv star who takes after his father. He made his first tv appearance back in 2009, taking on a minor role on Escape from Pirate’s Cove.
Remarkably, he was only six years old at the time. It took another three years before Robert worked on television again.
This time, he’d feature on his father’s wildlife reality show, ‘Steve Irwin’s Wildlife Warriors.’ His time on the series was marked by an Australian Loggie Award, which he received back in 2013.
Following this, Robert was brought on to host another Australian wildlife series, ‘Wild But True.’ This proved to be another critically acclaimed show, especially as it went on to clinch an Emmy Kids Award.
Other than this, Robert has appeared on shows like Earth to Ned, Bindi the Jungle Girl, and Dino Dan. When he was old enough, Robert took up a position at the Australian zoo alongside the rest of his family.
Just like his father, Robert got the opportunity to tussle with large reptiles like snakes, and even crocodiles. He’d also partner with his mother, sister, and the Animal Planet network to host the series titled, ‘Crikey! It’s the Irwins.
