Steve Irwin’s son, Robert Irwin, is following in his father’s footsteps as an animal lover extraordinaire.
On Thursday night, Robert appeared on "The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon" and the host brought out side-by-side pictures of Robert and his father. The resemblance was uncanny.
Robert said, “When my mom first showed (the picture) to me, I thought it was me.”
Irwin was on the show to introduce Fallon and the audience to some animals. He unveiled a scorpion and shared a few fun facts. While Fallon was slightly skittish around the venomous creature, Irwin was all smiles.
Robert then switched gears and brought out a group of bear cubs, which an adoring reaction from the audience. While Fallon usually doesn’t seem to be too fond of animals, it seemed impossible to be frightened with Irwin around.
