“I may be a KID but I AM Making a DIFFERENCE!!!!”
BUT being a Wildlife Warrior is not only about raising money for conservation and wildlife it is also about teaching people that we CAN live along side our wildlife,It’s trying to get people to do the right thing example throw your rubbish in a bin not on the ground. Recycle and reuse, Don’t use plastic bags as they are killing off our wildlife and polluting our land and waterways. please don’t use straws as they end up in our water ways and they ahve been known to kill wildlife by getting syuck in their throats and stomach.
Education: Working with people here in Australia and around the world so they can understand that we can live along side with wildlife and we do not need to fearful of them . Wildlife Warriors work together with FFI in Cambodia they have shown the Cambodians a way to keep elephants away from their crops, They have planted Chilli around their crops because elephants do not like chilli therefore stay away from the crops they have planted to earn money from.
Never ever buy products that come from endangered species, like tigers teeth,elephant tusks,Fur rugs,Fur coats you would be horrified to find out just how many pelts it takes to make one fur coat. WE humans have the wonderful opportunity to make clothing items from many types of material we do NOT need to wear real animal fur,the animals need it we don’t.
ANWSER THE CALL:
I am collecting mobile phones,Old ones unwanted ones any type you don’t want.These are NOT for me. As you know I AM aWildlife Warrior and right now I am on a mission to help save Gorillas in Africa.
Habitat destruction and poaching are just two of the factors driving this greatape to extinction. Coltan is a rare mineral that is used in the production ofelectronic devices, including mobile phones. Unfortunately, most of the world’s coltan reserves are found in the same region as gorillas and the mining for thisrare mineral is destroying their last remaining habitat.By recycling your old mobile phones, not only are you reducing the demand for coltan but also helping to raise funds for Gorilla conservation.
If you live in Melbourne shoot me an email and I can either pick up your old phone/phones or send you the bag you need to send your phone in .If your near Auztralia Zoo go there for a visit and collect a bag to send your phone/phones in.While your there grab a few extra and hand them out to family and friends. The more phones we can collect the better for the sake of the gorillas. Or you can even go online and print out some labels to send your phone/phones off.
It is trying our best to stop actions that we know are wrong therefore I am asking you all the petitions below if you have not all ready.If you can also please forward the URLs to everyone you know we have to do the right thing.

After all these years, I want to tell you all how profoundly Steve influenced my son, Trevor. We have always love animals and have a small reptilian collection of our own. My son, Trevor grew up watching Steve’s adventures on Animal Planet and fully intended to study under him, journeying to the Australian Zoo after graduation. He cried for weeks after Steve passed away, but is now happy knowing that the zoo and Steve’s message will survive. This young man, Trevor, living in Southwest Florida caught and cared for snakes, turtles, alligators, and other reptiles nearly every day. Before, he gets too old I want to share this with you as a furthering tribute to Steve Irwin:
When he was 12, Trevor was fishing at one of the local fresh water lakes when he saw an alligator lying on the bank. The ‘gator looked decimated, dried out, and nearly dead. He went to it and helped it into the water, but the ‘gator thrashed, rolled, and did not act right. Trevor pulled him back on shore. A homeowner came out and told Trevor the ‘gator showed up about three days before and hadn’t moved from the bank. Trevor instinctively knew it would die, so he ran home, tied his wagon to his bike, dumped out toys from a rubbermaid tub and returned to save the ‘gator. Upon getting the alligator home, Trevor called a group called C.R.O.W. (Care and Rehabilitation of Wildlife) located on Sanibel Island, Fl. As members of the SW Florida Herpetological Society, we knew they help distressed indigenous species. CROW came and collected the alligator. Trevor gave them all the information he could and they saved the alligator’s life. They determined the alligator sustained permanent neurological damage likely from being struck by an automobile. Although the animal could never survive in the wild with the injuries he has, CROW donated him to a local alligator zoo where he will be cared for and make baby ‘gators for the rest of his life. Attached is a picture of Trevor with his ‘gator.

Why would the Mining comapny want to destroy such a beautiful land?! It’s so ridiculous! It sucks how nearly everything these days are about money!! Steve’s place is a sacred land. Its where the whole family use to spend their days! They have looked after it so well! I say that we should all take a stand and say NO!!! TO MINING! Its destroying our planet all for the sake of money!!!
If you want to Save Steve’s Place then sign the online petition and if you want to do more then get a petition sent to you (like I did) and get all your friends, family, neighbours and even your whole town to save Steve’s Place!!!
Stand up for what you believe in! The land has so many memories for Terri, Bindi, Robert, Bob and even Wes and if the land is destroyed then Steve’s dream will be fading slowly!!!!!
Well Done Terri, Bob, Bindi, Robert and Wes for all the amazing work you are doing for the environment, wildlife and Steve’s Place!!
So take a stand and save Steve’s Place!!
Until next time
Animals Rule!!!

Calling all bloggers- we need your help to Save Steve’s Place!
As the battle to ‘Save Steve’s Place’ continues, Australia Zoo and partnering organisations are looking for alternative ways to protect the area forever.
Recently, the Queensland Government put forward a proposal to have the Wenlock River (the primary river on the Steve Irwin Wildlife Reserve) listed as a ‘Wild River’ under their special ‘Wild Rivers Legislation’. Once listed, the Wenlock River and its surrounds will gain a very high level of protection from any disturbances- including mining!
If the proposal is approved, the area available for mining on the ‘Steve Irwin Wildlife Reserve’ will be significantly reduced and the current mining proposal will become far less viable.
We need your help! Visit The Wilderness Society’s website to show your support and sign the petition to save the Wenlock River. Be sure to include a comment, to the Queensland Premier, about why you believe the Wenlock River and it surrounds should be protected. Together we can Save Steve’s Place!
One man can make a difference. YOU can make a difference.
Sign the petition!

Hi Everyone,
I find it deeply disturbing that mines are being developed on precious conservation reserves, like Steve’s Place on Cape York Peninsula. There’s also another Nature Refuge in central-west Queensland, which is one of the few uncleared properties in the whole region, and it’s in line to be dug up for coal! There’s a petition running for this one too, which you can find through www.bimblebox.org.
Please sign, because it might help protect ALL nature refuges in Queensland.
Thanks,

THE battle to Save Steve’s Place has set a new record for petitions in Queensland and possibly Australia with more than 73,000 people signing up.
Almost six weeks after vowing to secure the highest number of signatures for a petition, Australia Zoo’s Terri Irwin appears to have realised her objective, with 73,260 supporters signing on.
That’s 13,000 more than early last month when she said she was counting on people power to prevent bauxite mining in the Cape York reserve named in her late husband’s memory.
Mrs Irwin said then that the most signatures ever obtained for a petition against a mining operation was 20,000 and the most signatures she could find on anything in Australia was 72,000 in Queensland on the daylight saving issue.
Mrs Irwin has pledged to “fight to the end” to protect the 135,000ha Steve Irwin Wildlife Reserve - a wetland conservation property and tribute to the late Crocodile Hunter - which she said was being threatened by mining lease applications lodged by Cape Alumina Pty Ltd…(please follow link to Courier-mail)
GRASSROOTS hope ... after a loss in the courts, Terri Irwin is relying on people power to "Save Steve's Place"

Hello to All of the Irwin Family and the crew at the Australia Zoo!
I would just like to say that my dad and I would always watch the show “The Crocodile Hunter” and say, “I cannot believe he just did that!!”. My dad and I are still huge fans over here in TN, USA. For my 23rd birthday he gave me Terri’s written book “Steve and Me”. Terri, I have to say you are a very intelligent woman and I admire you tremendously for writing a book while raising two children. (Which are both beautiful by the way). I have only had this book a few days and I cannot put it down. I have read almost half of it already and it truely shows how much love you both truely shared. I smile when reading the funny stories you share in this book and so far all of the stories are very heartfelt. I just wanted to share with you how much I really enjoy this book and I am so glad to be apart of this website as well. I am very sorry to hear about the mining company and I signed the petition online for this to not happen. I’m glad Terri is standing up for this! That is not right!!
God bless the Irwin family!
With all my Love,
Courtney
