Terri Irwin
Born on July 20, 1964, she spent most of her childhood bicycling around Alton Baker Park or hiking up Spencer Butte. Her family owned a long-haul trucking business and her father frequently brought home wounded animals, which inspired her to pledge her life to wildlife. In 1986, she established a rehabilitation facility called Cougar County to re-educate and release predatory mammals back into the wild.
In 1991, during a holiday to Australia, Terri was captivated by the enthusiastic nature of Steve Irwin, who talked passionately about crocodiles. Steve and Terri married just a year after the encounter on 4 June 1992, in Oregon.
