Steve Irwin killed in stingray attack
Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin has been killed in a stingray attack near Cairns on Australia's far north coast.
It was believed Irwin had been swimming off the coast of Cairns when he was stung.

"It is understood he was killed by a stingray barb that went through his chest," Brisbane's Courier Mail reported this afternoon.

Irwin's wife Terri was believed to be trekking on Tasmania's Cradle Mountain, Sky News reported.

Stingray attacks are extremely rare. There have only been two similar deaths reported in Australia.

Irwin once told the Animal Planet website he had had "many, many close calls - too numerous to mention really."

Irwin was best known for his documentary series "The Crocodile Hunter".
