Robert your dad would be so proud of all of you for not letting his legacy go to waste. I say kudos to you all n one day I wanna come see you all.

[@nathanielheustis687]

Growing up being a similar age to Robert. I grew up watching Steve Irwin and when he passed it was such a huge loss for the animal community. It’s dope to have grown up and be able to see Robert doing such a killer job. He looks so natural and knowledgeable and chill. I’m glad he’s able to continue the legacy

I was at our local Aquarium today in Toronto and purchased a Bracelet. The Bracelet goes to a great Cause. I am now tracking a Loggerhead Turtle named "Dobby". The Turtle has a Tracking Device and I can watch her and where she goes.

This is going to sound a bit confusing, but my kindergarten teachers daughter was apart of the wildlife warriors and had a big passion for animals especially giraffes. She sadly passed in 2017 at the age of 9 my school was heavily impacted by this and got therapist’s to come explain what happen to everyone. When she died her parents made a go fund me and created these amazing t-shirts with stuff she was heavily involved in like wildlife warriors. In the wildlife hospital at the zoo there quotes on the walls of the hospital. When i visited it was amazing to see the hospital and I was told (sorry if this isn’t accurate I don’t have much memory from this) that my teachers daughter had a little display in a corner and it was heart warming to see this beautiful little girl that would’ve made a great zoo keeper/ wildlife enthusiast. The zoo keepers and everyone involved at Australia zoo puts in so much effort to make what the zoo is today and I’m so grateful how the Irwin’s have continued Steve legacy in something he was so passionate about.

I had the chance to see a Loggerhead Turtle when I was on a boat looking for dolphins. We saw something big coming towards the boat and we thought it would be a dolphin, but the form broke the water and turned and looked up at us and we were just dumbfounded! They are huge and their heads are enormous. Thanks for taking such good care of Captain Pete (how did he get his name?).

[@Guuzaka]

Really glad to see him go from sick and covered in nasty barnacles to eating, moving, and free of barnacles! 🌞🐢

Lucky Pete to have been rescued by y'all. You are doing amazing work with all the animals that come through your doors!! Love from Florida, we absolutely love turtles and tortoises. Where I live we have abundant Gopher tortoises throughout our neighborhood farms. Near Ocala. I'm from Hollywood, FL have always seen the Giants coming in to lay their eggs and see their hatchlings going for their first swim. Also in the Everglades, seeing those turtles. They are fascinating. ❤️🧓🌺❤️

This is what we need to do worldwide. Save them before they go extinct, and it would be cause of us, they literally inhabited this planet before us, and they evolved through millions of years, we need to help them survive the next human made extinction. Might sound funny or "woke" or whatever some people want to put on you, but the harsh truth, help the animals is the best thing you can do, no matter country. Awsome to see this rescue 🐢! Keep it up 🙌🏼
