Image descriptionA tweet from Robert Irwin features two side-by-side photos taken 15 years apart at the same location with the same crocodile named Murray.

  • The top photo shows Steve Irwin (Robert's father) wearing his signature khaki outfit, holding food in the air as Murray, a large crocodile, rises up on his hind legs toward it. A crowd of spectators watches in the background.
  • The bottom photo shows Robert Irwin, also dressed in khaki, recreating the same moment with Murray in the same spot. Robert mirrors his father's pose, with Murray again rising toward the food. The crowd in the background is watching intently.

The caption reads: "Dad and me feeding Murray… same place, same croc – two photos 15 years apart ❤️🐊"

Probably 'Australia Zoo', Queensland. Steve Irwin is Robert's dad and was known as 'The Crocodile Hunter' .

Not the first time Robert has been in the enclosure. Steve copped a bit of heat from the press after he went in one day with an infant Bob.

Screenshot of a 5 1/2 year old post. I wonder how Murray is doing today.
