The late Steve Irwin’s family is making a huge impact at their Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital in Queensland. 

An orphaned baby platypus named Ollie is currently getting 24-hour care until he is old enough to return to the wild.

“With so many devastating fires within Australia, my heart breaks for the people and wildlife who have lost so much,” Bindi wrote on Instagram. “I wanted to let you know that we are SAFE. There are no fires near us @AustraliaZoo or our conservation properties.”

With so many devastating fires within Australia, my heart breaks for the people and wildlife who have lost so much. I wanted to let you know that we are SAFE. There are no fires near us @AustraliaZoo or our conservation properties. Our Wildlife Hospital is busier than ever though, having officially treated over 90,000 patients. My parents dedicated our Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital to my beautiful grandmother. We will continue to honour her by being Wildlife Warriors and saving as many lives as we can. 💙🙏🏼

At 21 years old Bindi is making a huge impact on animals and the planet at the animal hospital where she says they are “incredibly busy”.

She also said, “Together we can make a difference to help our planet.” Let’s hope she learns about veganism and truly begins to stand behind that statement soon.
