When she was 9, Irwin hosted Bindi the Jungle Girl , a children's wildlife documentary TV series.

Early life

Bindi Sue Irwin was born in Buderim, Queensland. [2] Her first name comes from the name of her father's favourite female crocodile at Australia Zoo, and her middle name, Sue, is from the family's late dog Sui, who died in her sleep from cancer on 23 June 2004 at the age of 15. According to her father, Bindi is an Nyungar language word that means "young girl". [7]

Irwin began appearing on television shows as early as age two. [8] She appeared regularly in her father's television shows, including The Crocodile Hunter Diaries , and in the 2002 film The Wiggles: Wiggly Safari in a credited cast role. She is of English, Irish and Swedish ancestry, with abundance of Irish ancestry on her father's side. Irwin said about being a dual citizen (Australian-American), in an interview with Brisbane Times : "What's really nice is being a dual citizen both here and in the US so I think I get to vote there as well." [9]

Bindi was eight years old when her father was killed by a stingray barb [10] during the filming of an underwater documentary. [11] On 20 September 2006, Irwin received a standing ovation after she delivered a eulogy for her father in front of a crowd of 5,000, and a worldwide television audience of more than 300 million viewers. In the 2006 TV Week readers' poll, her speech received 43 percent of votes and was voted the television moment of the year. Her mother stated that, apart from some assistance with typing, Irwin had written the speech herself. [12] [13] [14] [15]

Irwin was homeschooled until 2014, when she enrolled at TAFE Queensland East Coast. She has completed a Certificate III in Business, and in 2016 was studying for a Certificate III in Tourism. [16] [ needs update ]
