We've lost a passionate conservationist and a talented wildlife educator.  His work included so much more than just the Croc show.  The work of natural history advocacy, education, and preservation have suffered a painful blow.  More important and saddening, however, is the loss of a loving husband and father.

I'm so sad. I love his shows and all he did for conservation.

Wow, that is sad. This is the first I've heard of it.

I agree with JLawson. His shows were educational, and at the same time entertaining.

I was actually shocked to hear about this. It's so incredibly sad. Yes, it was a huge loss for the conservation of wildlife (luckily he was able to leave his mark) but I too thought first of his wife and kid.

I know that he focused on risky situations, but he was always so in tune with everything, so alert, and most importantly so respectful of the wild nature of the animals, I really didn't think something like this would happen.

He came close to death many times before ... it was just bound to happen ... but really ... could you think of any other way he'd want to go?  He died the way he lived.
