I didn't believe it until I read the obituary

[kooala]

Steve Irwin is dead.

Sure I didn't watch his show a LOT but I really did enjoy watching them.  I was stunned when I saw the heading for the obit on yahoo and I just didn't believe it.  And then I read this:

So sad!  :(  And I really liked his upbeat attitude and his passion for animals.
