Did anybody hear about this? I just found out.

Sad isn't it? RIP Steve. Happy hunting wherever you are.

Oh, and another sad piece, Bob Ross the man who painted happy little trees is also gone. Hope he's happy painting clouds, and God if he agrees to pose. RIP Bob.

Yeah. I heard about it a few hours ago at work. I thought they were joking. That's a sad thing. I always liked the guy.

Steve knew what he was doing and I don't think that was the way he was meant to go. I think some child rights activists sprayed Stingray pheremones all over and made the Stingray crazy so it would attack anything in retaliation to those photos taken of him holding his baby while playing with the crocodiles.

RIP Steve. I hope you're up there wrestling crocks now.

I just heard ten minutes ago. I really can't believe it. He seemed like such a nice guy, with a warm and energetic spirit. And he really knew what he was doing. Poor, Terri, Bindi, and Bob. And, of course, Steve. :-(

Very sad to hear this. What's even sadder is that his wife is climbing a mountain somewhere, so apparently she doesn't know yet. I *really* hope someone gets to her before she hears it on the news...

quite sad to hear the news this morning

I grew to so admire what the work Steve did at his zoo--hope that can continue

Also, I can kill you with my brain.

The man was a leaf in the wind when it came to dealing with animals. I really can't say anything that would properly do him justice. This is a sad day.

Agreed. There'll never be another. He was a good man, and fun to make fun of.

(The Yahoo news report says that his wife has been informed, and has informed their kids.)

I just read about it online. This is indeed sad news.

When I first saw his show way back when, I thought he was kind of a kook. But, after watching for a while, I really came to respect the guy.

You just can't get more passionate about reptiles and animals than Steve.

I feel so bad for his family...
