I am optimistic globally. So many scientists are working frantically on the reparation of our planet. Unfortunately there are countries who are still destroying it, but we really hope the conservation message rubs off in our film. Every cent we earn from Crocodile Hunter goes straight back into conservation. Every single cent.

When the East Timor conflict broke out, when they gained independence, the militia killed a lot of East Timorese people. And their sacred totem is the crocodile. They believe that their island is actually a solidified crocodile, so it has sacred status.

Crikey means gee whiz, wow!

What television has done is it's given me a stepping stone to get to some other countries and really wild destinations throughout this world, which perhaps I would have had to struggle to get to.

The truth is that we will never save wildlife by killing it.

I believe our biggest issue is the same biggest issue that the whole world is facing, and that's habitat destruction.

And that unusual squawking sound is actually the mating call of the the rare...oh, it's just an oboe player.
