"The Crocodile Hunter dies"
In the scholastic webpage their is a very good article written by Suzanne Freeman about the death of the famous "Crocodile Hunter" Steve Irwin. It is called "The Crocodile Hunter Dies"
It is very sad that a good man like Steve Irwin is dead, especially by a stingray. He had a dangerous life handling crocodiles, snakes, sharks, but what killed him was a stingray in the Great Barrier Reef, Australia. He was 44, was married and had a son and a daughter.He was filming a new documentary and saw the stingrays and began to film them, suddenly the tail of the stingray rose up and strike him in the heart. It seems the stingray got scared and attacked, it is very rare but the tail of the stingray can be very big and very poisonous.There it says he was killed almost instantly. This sad accident was on Monday 4 of September in the coast of Australia, in Queensland. This is very sad to see, a man like Steve who took care of dangerous animals, he was very good and helpful. Deaths from encounters with stingrays are extremely rare. Irwin is only the third person in Australia to be killed by a stingray.
This accident who took the life of Steve Irwin was very sad. It leaves a big emptiness in our hearts. Wherever he is, he is catching crocodiles in a better place.

"I really do feel Australia has lost a wonderful and colorful son," Howard said.
“He took risks, he enjoyed life, and he brought immense joy to millions of
people, particularly to children. He was a wonderful character. He was a
passionate environmentalist. It's such a terrible loss."

Arnold I really liked your post I liked to watch Steve Irwin's show and I think you put a lot of details and a lot of effort. It's so bad that as you said a good and helpful person like Steve Irwin had to die. I agree, I think he is catching crocodiles in a better place. Many people had an image of Steve Irwin as a big hero in their heart and I think that the world won't forget him in a long, long while.
I love your last line - He is catching crocodiles in a better place. It makes me smile.
