Terri Irwin

Terri Raines Irwin (née Raines, born July 20, 1964) is an American-Australian conservationist, television personality, author and zookeeper who is the owner of Australia Zoo in Beerwah, Queensland. She is the widow of Steve Irwin.

Born in Oregon, she began working for an independent animal rehabilitation center for injured predator mammals at the age of 22 while working for her family's trucking business. She met her husband Steve while touring wildlife rehabilitation facilities in Australia in 1991. The two married in 1992, and went on to co-star in ''The Crocodile Hunter'', their unconventional television nature documentary series and its spin-off series, ''Croc Files'', ''The Crocodile Hunter Diaries'', and ''Crikey! It's the Irwins''. They had two children, Bindi and Robert, before Steve's death in 2006 from a stingray injury while filming an underwater documentary.

Following Steve's death, Terri became a naturalised Australian citizen in 2009. She and her two children continue to operate Australia Zoo. Provided by Wikipedia
