The snake that bit Robert Irwin’s face is the same species that bit his late father. Unsettling likeness to Steve Irwin

Bindi and Robert Irwin, the children of the late Steve Irwin, both continue their father’s legacy. Like their father, they are equally committed to protecting Australia’s biodiversity and its varied species.

But there are more parallels than that… When his father once had a similar encounter, young Robert Irwin captured it on camera.

In addition to sharing his late father’s appearance, Robert Irwin has adopted many of his traits, including his work choice. The late wildlife warrior recently shared another eerily connection between the two guys on Instagram, which he could have done without.
