This post is one of several on business heirs apparent. Let us know in the comments whether you think Bindi Irwin should take up the reigns of her father’s conservation/entertainment empire, and be sure to check out the other heir apparent posts.

Most fathers don’t need a reason to be proud of their little girls. Just the fact that our daughters are our own tiny princesses can produce pride enough for even the roughest dudes. The proposition is rendered even sweeter when you’re out in public and your little girl acts like a perfect lady beside you. But perhaps the greatest pride producer of all is when your daughter conducts herself like a lady in your absence. Such is the priceless tribute paid to the the legacy of the late Steve Irwin, by his daughter Bindi Irwin, each and each day.

Blessed with her father’s innate connection to wildlife and a swift, cute wit that’s her own, Bindi Irwin has forged ahead in her father’s absence to carry the messages of nature conservation. With the caring guidance of Terri Irwin, her stout-hearted and intelligent mother, Bindi has traveled extensively, including promotional visits to New York and Los Angeles. Additionally, when she’s not globe trotting, Bindi makes regular entertainment appearances at the Animal Planet Crocoseum, in conjunction with Australia Zoo.

The tireless exploits of Bindi Irwin have led her directly into the spotlight. On March 5, the Australia Zoo website announced that Bindi has been nominated for a Logie Award. Logies are Australian TV awards, in existence since 1958. Bindi Irwin has been nominated for Most Popular New Talent–Female. It is said that she has been nominated along side some very popular actresses.

Could we state that Bindi Irwin has stepped up to fill her father’s shoes? I’d not hesitate to state that in her own way she has. Every bit as engaging and caring as her father, she carries the torch of animal conservation across the world. That pursuit works for her because she lives it. Bindi Irwin will turn ten years old on July 24, 2008. She’s accomplished a considerable amount of good in her tender years.

The daughter of Steve Irwin has conducted herself as a lady does. There could be no greater tribute that she could give to her father. I hope you’ll join me in expressing this earnest message to Australia’s darling jewel: We’re proud of you Bindi. You’re a very good daughter.
