Crocodile hunter has a new nipper

TV crocodile hunter Steve Irwin and his wife Terri have a new nipper – a baby son born this week in a hospital near their Australian zoo.

The couple’s second child, Robert Clarence Irwin, was born early on Monday in Brisbane’s Sunshine Coast Private Hospital.

The arrival of a brother for the Irwins’ five-year-old daughter Bindi was “sensational”, Irwin said, adding that wrestling crocs was less stressful than watching his wife have a baby.
