Bindi Irwin

I love having my birthday at Australia Zoo. ”

I kind of think of my life as this incredible hurricane of so many adventures. We can all make a difference, and we can all be courageous and believe in ourselves. ”

As I'm getting older, I'm really learning unconditional love and loyalty are extremely important. ”

We literally live right in the middle of the zoo, and it means that every day is a new experience and so much fun. ”

Every day is a new journey for me, and I feel like, in my lifetime, I've been blessed to experience such a lot. ”

In real life, I am trying to save the Steve Irwin wildlife preserve. It's in Australia, up on Cape York, and it's in danger of being strip-mined. ”

I want my children and my grandchildren to live in a world with clean air, pure drinking water, and an abundance of wildlife, so I've chosen to dedicate my life to wildlife conservation so I can make the world just a little bit better. ”

If I am able to pass on what I've learnt in my life, that's really wonderful, especially after losing Dad. ”

My life is certainly not common, but I think of myself as... a 'normal' teenager. ”

It's so easy for 16-year-olds, including myself, to say, 'I just wish I were an adult.' But we can't wish our lives away. When we're adults, we'll say, 'I wish I were 16 again.' ”
