Bindi Irwin

Bindi Irwin is a dedicated wildlife conservationist, who has inherited her parents' passion for protecting wildlife and wild places. She educates millions of people on the importance of protecting our natural world. Born to Wildlife Warriors Steve and Terri Irwin, Bindi is determined to carry on her father’s legacy, and make a positive difference on the planet.

Bindi is the CEO of Australia Zoo and is proud to be supporting endangered species breeding programs, research, and education through her important work at this world-renowned zoological facility.

Bindi has been filming wildlife documentaries most of her life, appearing in The Crocodile Hunter and hosting Bindi: The Jungle Girl. Bindi was awarded a Logie in Australia, and at the age of nine became the youngest performer ever to win a Daytime Emmy Award when she won the award for “Outstanding Performer in a Children’s Series”. More recently, Bindi has filmed four seasons of Crikey! It’s the Irwins, on Animal Planet. 

Bindi works and travels extensively with the charity her parents established in 2002, Wildlife Warriors. With 12 global conservation projects, three conservation properties protecting almost half a million acres, and a wildlife hospital that has treated over 130,000 patients, Wildlife Warriors is integral to species and habitat preservation.

One of Bindi’s most important projects would have to be the ongoing research to study saltwater crocodiles. Along with the University of Queensland, each year Bindi conducts the science involved with what has become the longest-running telemetry study on individual animals anywhere in the world.

Bindi is now happily married to Chandler Powell and they have a beautiful daughter, Grace Warrior Irwin Powell. Together, they are a family of Wildlife Warriors dedicated to speaking for those who cannot speak for themselves.”
