Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin has reportedly been killed in a stingray attack near Cairns on Australia's far north coast.
It was believed Irwin had been swimming off the coast of Cairns when he was stung.
"It is understood he was killed by a sting-ray barb that went through his chest," Brisbane's Courier Mail reported this afternoon.
Irwin was best known for his documentary series "The Crocodile Hunter".
He was born in Victoria and found his love of animals after following in his father's footsteps, volunteering his services to the Queensland Government's East Coast Crocodile Management program.
He spent years living on his own in the mosquito infested creeks, rivers and mangroves of North Queensland, catching huge crocodiles single-handed.
In June 1992, he married American Terri Raines after they met when she visited Irwin's Australia Zoo.
The 44-year-old is survived by his wife and two children, Bindi and Robert.

Crikey, say it isn't so...
I haven't seen any other news source reporting it yet.
Too bad if it's so, because he's done a lot to raise awareness about poaching and other animal issues with his humorous style.
If it's true, it only goes to prove that when you play with Mother Nature, you may have to suffer the consequences.

so sad for his family ;(
they've already started exploiting his daughter bindi in recent months with her taking over the role of spokesperson in the tv advertising ...
truly unbelievable. he may have been over the top, but underneath the hype he was a great ambassador for so many good things. major loss to australia and the environment.
RIP steve ;(Comment
