The

They are the fastest land mammal on earth, but the Cheetah is fast running out of time with an estimated 9000 to 12,000 Cheetah remaining in the wild. The Cheetah is critically endangered is some parts of Africa and could become extinct if we do not act now. Cheetah/human conflict is the biggest threat to their survival.

Australia Zoo Wildlife Warriors Worldwide has a partnership with the De Wildt Cheetah and Wildlife Trust and Cheetah Outreach in South Africa to assist with Cheetah conservation. Funds raised support Cheetah releases, Cheetah tracking and monitoring, local education to reduce Cheetah/human conflict and The Anatolian Shepherd Program. This program is a non-lethal method of managing predators like the Cheetah from killing livestock from local farms. The Shepherd dog is raised as part of the flock to protect the animals from many predators which sometimes include the Cheetah. Farmers involved have reported no loss of livestock as a result of predator attacks since implementing this very successful program.

Australia Zoo Wildlife Warrior’s are proud sponsors of Warrior. Warrior is an Anatolian Shepard placed with a herd on a farm in Africa in 2006. Two years on; brave Warrior has become an excellent guardian to his herd. Read more about Warrior's progress.

Hi everyone, it's me Lucy. I want to remind everyone that on the 15th of November is Steve Irwin day. As being School Captain of my school, for the whole time on that day, we will be doing activities such as wearing our kakhi's, thong throwing, jumping on plush crocs, wrighting letters to the Irwins, have some special guest from our local wildlife group come in with some animals, and HEAPS more. As always, ALL money made (probably around $1000) will go straight to Australia Zoo Wildlife Warroirs. Even though most of you wouldn't go to my school, can you PLEASE make a donation as well or wear your kakhi's or participate in the backyard campout like me. Just remember, CROCS RULE!!!!!

My family and i are huge fans of australia zoo and the message they teach to the world! I hate to think it, but we will never be able to experience the zoo. So... we would like to see more videos on the zoo website. We would love to see videos of the zoo and the staff and of course the Irwins, including Steve. We would love to see video of what goes on at the zoo and the animals and all the special events that take place. It would be great to be able to watch the shows at the Crocoseum and watch the staff work with the wonderful animals. We would also love to see more videos of the Irwins. We can't be there so it would be great to experience the zoo in other ways.

Steve Irwin,a true widlife warrior was further recognised at the unvieling of a new enrty statement on Steve Iwrin Way.Terri,Bindi and Robert attened the unvieling of the display sign.
The sign features Steve in a familiar pose,feeding one of his favourite animals, the crocodile.I would have loved to have attened the event as it would have meant so much to me.

Bindi

Today I was introduced to Bindi as The Elephant Boy from Chiang Mai in Thailand.I actually live in Brisbane now, but back in Chiang Mai I spent a lot of time with elephants. Here are some pictures and the photo I took with Bindi today.I was very happy to make her acquaintance.Maybe she'll come to visit me in Brisbane when she's not busy!

A bid for the tiger

Australia Zoo was buzzing with excitment with the arrival of there new drop-dead gorgeous Sumatran tigers.The cheeky three cubs (would you believe it) all the way from INDONESIA!!!!Wow!!!<
That is a long way for three tiger cubs but the good thing is they are loving there new home at Australia Zoo.Sumatran tigers a critically endangered with an estimate of 400 hundred left in the wild.That is really sad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!But with the help of Australia Zoo's breeding program we could change everything wit just one action!!!Don't buy wildlife products especially tiger products.We don't want these gorgeous animals to go extint.Extintion really does stink.
I can't wait to go and visit the tiger cubs at Australia Zoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Australia Zoo Staff

G'day Everyone,
You all know me by now and I feel I need to say a few things about the Australia Zoo staff. Only being 10 I can be a bit of a pain, but the zoo staff NEVER ever get angry with me. I ring up to ask about Bindi Wear, I ask them to explain contest rules to me so I make sure I understand it right. I ring up if I see something about the Irwins thats not nice at all.
They only know my first name they don't know me at all but they are always friendly and nice. I am not treated like a dumb kid, I get treated like I am important, not all places treat kids like that.
Suzie
