The true culture of Australia goes back to the aboriginals, and visiting their land is amazing experience. My class (before I homeschooled) went on trip and we got to see traditional aboriginal dances and saw a man play the digeridoo. The boys all got to have a go. Was so cool! There's a wonderful movie called Rabbit Proof Fence, if it in America I recommend you watch! |
Do you even realize what all Steve Irwin did for Australia? Even after his death, his work continues. I cannot/will not say something negative about someone that, first of all, had such a great hand in animal rehab, education, compassion....I think highly of his passion and love for Australia...for the culture that you say he was none of.
You do not have to agree with me, but atleast try to respect the fact that he is deceased.
