A hero is someone that cares not only about humanity, but also takes care about nature like plants, forests, water, and animals. If a person talks about a hero, it has to be someone who always does good actions, someone who never rests, someone who always risks his or her life for research or saving something and also takes care about his family just like Stephen Robert Irwin, or better known as "The Crocodile Hunter," someone who cares about nature and his family.

Stephen Robert Irwin, better known as The Crocodile Hunter, was born on February 22 in 1962. He was an Australian wildlife expert and television personality. He had a show called as his nickname The Crocodile Hunter, which was a wildlife documentary and film with his wife named Terri Ranes. They got married in 1992. Both co-owned and operated The Australian Zoo. After they got married, they got two children: a girl call Bindi Sue born in July 24 at 1998 and Robert Clarence born in December 1, 2003.

His death was on September 4, 2006. Irwin was fatally pierced in his chest by a stingray spine at The Great Barrier Reef. This accident caused a conflict in his family because Stephen's phrase was: The Camera Never Stops" but his family never let that the film was shown in public.

He is my hero because he took care about nature and his family and he had his own show and had two children and was a good earthkeeper.
