description: Steve Irwin, AKA 'the Crocodile Hunter', was only 44 when his untimely death robbed the world of one of its greatest and most popular naturalists, conservationists and environmentalists. Though an undeniably gifted broadcaster and consummate showman, Irwin was first and foremost an animal lover, and his hugely successful media career grew organically out of his all-consuming passion for wildlife and the natural world. This book traces the extraordinary story of the boy who was catching crocodiles in rivers by the age of nine, and who grew up to become, in the words of RSPCA Queensland's CEO, 'a modern-day Noah'.
