Robert Irwin Moved to Tears Seeing Late Father Steve's Wax Figure

The 20-year-old zookeeper encountered his father's likeness for the first time during the unveiling of his own wax figure at Madame Tussauds Sydney.

Robert Irwin became emotional seeing his late father Steve Irwin's wax figure at Madame Tussauds Sydney, where his own wax figure was unveiled.
Steve Irwin, the beloved 'Crocodile Hunter,' died in 2006 when Robert was just two years old, leaving behind a legacy of wildlife conservation.
Robert shared that this was the first time he had seen his father represented as more than just a photo or video, describing the moment as overwhelming and surreal.
The younger Irwin’s wax figure, featuring him holding a Woma python, stands near his father’s, symbolizing their shared passion for wildlife preservation.
Robert continues to honor his father’s legacy through his work at the Australia Zoo and as a global ambassador for Prince William’s Earthshot Prize.
