The tragic loss of Australian icon, Steve Irwin the crocodile hunter, has saddened people worldwide.
We can take comfort in the fact that Steve died as he would have wanted when the stingray he was wrestling stabbed him in the heart with its poisonous 20cm barb.
What will be his legacy?
Surely it will be that Steve has shown us that it is possible to disturb a potentially lethal animal in its natural environment and then roll around with it in a headlock, without fear.
Or will it be to bring to the attention to the public the risks of grappling or cuddling for fun a large stingray, something that can all to easily be overlooked by families of beachgoers in search of summer fun?
What are your thoughts?

Steve started young. As a child he used to wrestle his mother´s shoes, which were made of alligator skin.
