The Irwins' daughter is also carrying on her father's work with a show of her own, Bindi, the Jungle Girl, which will air on Discovery Kids in January. In it, Bindi cavorts with everything from koala bears to snakes. "I'm trying to get across the message that 'don't be afraid of animals,'" Bindi told an Australian news show. "Some people think that I would be afraid of them, but I'm never ever afraid of an animal. I just get excited." The series, in which Irwin himself plays a major role (he was shooting a segment for it when he died), showcases a little girl every bit as exuberant as her dad. "She's really excited about talking to the camera about wildlife and singing and dancing," says family friend John Stainton, whose company is producing the show. And when Bindi's not filming, she's doing her best to get back into her daily routine. Says Stainton: "She does all the normal things little girls do, like play with dolls and her friends. She's learning the piano, she's learning to surf and loving it. She's just a very special little girl who enjoys life."
