He inherited it from his parents (father was also a herpetologist and Steve was raised the same way he's raising his kids), made it into a full zoo, and opened it to the public.

Hence the public being there.

The television crews were there filming something earlier in the day, they were packing up and decided to stick around a little longer to get some extra footage; that's when they got the baby shot.

He was *not* doing it on purpose for the tv's or the crowd. This is how he raises his children to first get them used to the crocodiles (most children would run screaming from a large green reptile with lots of teeth) and then to teach them to be safe around those reptiles.
Wake up and look at the footage again Carrie - he was doing it in front of a live audience - he was wearing a microphone so he could talk to the audience - this wasn't some private little learning session for his one month old son.
