Snake Solis

Pets

It's the 5th anniversary of Steve Irwin's death. It's strange how it's already been five years since he died... I still watch his show on Animal Planet, and he had always shown reptiles in a positive light, something we still need more of in the media.

In his memory I released some more snake-related Solis into Explore:




Did Steve Irwin inspire you?

That man was my hero, when I was little and wanted be just like him. And yes I did pick up snakes and wanted to wrestle gators(Cuz we lack crocs) at the time.

My best friend and I used to watch his show everyday after school. I remember that she called me, crying, when he died :(

While I can't say I was "inspired" by Steve, I did have an immense respect for the man for everything he did. His death broke my heart.

Wow 5 years, really? I used to watch his show all the time, he was awesome. He did inspire me, I went and did research on a lot of different animals to find out more about them because of him. Zoology is a favorite of mine now. ^_^

Steve Irwin was and always will be one of my heroes and inspirations. He taught me so much about animals. It really sparked my love for animals. When i was little it was always my dream to go to the Australian Zoo and meet him. I was devastated when i heard the news that Steve Irwin had died. But at least he died doing what he loved. Can't believe its been 5 years.... Still miss him.

He absolutely inspired and fascinated me. I have always loved reptiles and I don't understand why people have such a fear of them. In fact right now I have a Yellow-Foot Tortoise and a Leopard Gecko living in my room with me. I actually did not believe what my friend was telling me when he died. It is truly a shame that he had to die the way he did, but he did die doing what he loved.
