The zoo was opened by Bindi’s grandparents, Bob and Lyn Irwin and serves as the largest wildlife conservation facility in the world, according to the website.
“Such a fantastic day our family will never forget at @australiazoo with the incredible #IrwinFamily and @BindisueIrwin who our little Tucker fell madly in love with! “#SteveIrwin was the coolest guy ever”- Mason our 11yr old,” Hart wrote on Instagram.
In a picture with just Bindi, the “Clarissa Explains it All” actress gushed about the meeting.
“Had the amazing honor of meeting this lovely lady today! So thrilling for me (oh and the kids). And @BindiSueIrwin was cool too! ? We had the most amazing zoo experience at the @AustraliaZoo. #AustraliaZoo PS better pic to come. This was a pic of a pic.”
