Grace Irwin, the granddaughter of Steve Irwin, is forbidden from feeding crocodiles until she turns 18, as her mother, Bindi Irwin, emphasizes age-appropriate interactions with wildlife. Bindi has cultivated a safe environment for Grace, surrounded by less dangerous animals. This lifestyle reflects the Irwin family’s dedication to conservation and animal care. Bindi's upcoming children's book highlights these values and is dedicated to her parents and Grace. The Irwins embody a lifestyle where wildlife encounters are both educational and nurturing, emphasizing a deep connection with nature.
"When she is 18, and if she wants to help us feed the crocodiles, that's great - but not now and not anytime soon," Grace's mom Bindi Irwin tells TODAY.com.
"Our whole life revolves around wildlife... It's not just what we do - it is completely who we are... I was teeny tiny when my mom and dad started introducing me to different animals."
"I understand how wildlife behaves and... I don't ever have Grace in a situation or meeting an animal that she's not ready for. Her world pretty much revolves around koalas, tortoises, giraffes and red pandas."
"When we talk about conservation and protecting our planet, often it makes us a little anxious and a little uncomfortable," says Bindi about her book.
