My dad dedicated his life to getting across the wildlife message, and I love that I can carry on his legacy. I want to make sure his message never dies. – Bindi Irwin
Thrilled to be part of this new project Generation Nature and just encouraging kids to change the world. – Bindi Irwin
Dad was that one person who, no matter what he did in life, he just took it by storm, and he was so passionate and just really lived in the moment. Whatever the opposite of a procrastinator is, that was him… and I think I kind of inherited a little bit of that. – Bindi Irwin
I want my children and my grandchildren to live in a world with clean air, pure drinking water, and an abundance of wildlife, so I’ve chosen to dedicate my life to wildlife conservation so I can make the world just a little bit better. – Bindi Irwin
We literally live right in the middle of the zoo, and it means that every day is a new experience and so much fun. – Bindi Irwin
I guess, growing up at Australia Zoo and getting to travel all over the world, I have this great outlook on life, and that’s what I hope I inspire other kids to have. – Bindi Irwin
I have the best daddy in the whole world, and I will miss him every day. When I see a crocodile, I will always think of him, and I know that Daddy made this zoo so everyone could come and learn to love all the animals. – Bindi Irwin
Family doesn’t necessarily mean that you have to have a mother, a father, a little brother, and an older sister. – Bindi Irwin
My Dad was such an incredible person, and you have the option of just curling up in a dark corner and letting it all go or you have the option of standing strong, sticking together and carrying on what he lived and died for. And I think that’s what’s so important – to be able to carry on where he left off. – Bindi Irwin
I know that Daddy had an important job. He was working to change the world so everyone would love wildlife like he did. He built a hospital to help animals, and he bought lots of land to give animals a safe place to live. – Bindi Irwin
When you lose someone whose life was so extraordinary like my dad’s, you have two options: You can curl up in a dark corner… or rise above it and dust yourself off and continue with their work. He will always be with me. – Bindi Irwin
It’s so easy for 16-year-olds, including myself, to say, ‘I just wish I were an adult.’ But we can’t wish our lives away. When we’re adults, we’ll say, ‘I wish I were 16 again.’ – Bindi Irwin
With fewer resources to share around more people, how can the poor have improved lifestyles? – Bindi Irwin
I have the most beautiful souls in my life supporting me and helping me to follow my dreams. I love them more than I can ever express in words. – Bindi Irwin
I don’t want Daddy’s passion to ever end. I want to help endangered wildlife just like he did. – Bindi Irwin
I was so used to documentary filming, where it’s one take. You can’t really say, ‘Make that elephant charge again!’ And you talk to the camera. With movie filming, you’re talking to someone else. – Bindi Irwin
I always think the true test of free speech is when someone says something you don’t like. – Bindi Irwin
I had a brilliant time working with the entire cast and crew at ‘Return To Nim’s Island.’ It’s amazing how, after working on a film, you really become a family, and you build these really special bonds together. – Bindi Irwin
I have spent my entire life living in a zoo, which is pretty crazy. Not many kids get to say that, and it took me until I was about three years old to realize that we didn’t just come to the zoo every day, that we actually lived here. – Bindi Irwin
