Bindi Irwin reveals her daughter’s nickname for Steve Irwin alongside a touching response

An adorable video featuring Bindi Irwin’s daughter revealed the sweet nickname the five-year-old has for the grandfather she never got to meet.

It’s been nearly 20 years since the world lost Steve Irwin to a devastating stingray attack, and he has sadly missed huge family milestones.

The latest is seeing Grace Warrior grow up to be just as passionate about wildlife as the rest of the family.

Bindi was recently filming her husband, Chandler, explaining why the family had to remove a carpet python from Australia Zoo when young Grace decided she wanted to be on camera.

Chandler said that while they loved pythons, they needed to be moved away to protect the birds.

“We have to make sure our snakes are safe and set them in this lovely outback,” Grace said without skipping a beat.

As Chandler worked to get the snake out of the bag, Grace said her “dada” was “really good at snakes”.

If that wasn’t cute enough, Grace then brought up wildlife warrior Steve Irwin.

“You know what? Your dada, Grandpa Crocodile, is really good at snakes, too,” Grace said.

The snake release went off without a hitch, with Chandler explaining that this particular carpet python was on the smaller end.

“They can grow up to be thicker than my arms,” he said.

The adorable interaction and sweet nickname for Steve made the internet’s heart explode.

“So many tugs at the heartstrings…and what a wonderful wildlife warrior Grace is becoming. Steve would be bursting with pride,” television personality Lisa Wilkinson said.

“Oh my goodness. This is the first time I’ve really seen and heard Grace talk – and she’s absolutely adorable. I can’t handle it,” a fan said.

“So cute. Way to go, Grace, you’re such a wildlife warrior. Grandpa Crocodile would be so proud,” another added.
