Guests at Australia Zoo were treated to a spectacular Crocoseum event on Friday.
Bindi Irwin celebrated her 22nd birthday by feeding the crocodiles, alongside her husband Chandler Powell, brother Robert Irwin and mother Terri Irwin.
The conservationist would have made her late father Steve Irwin proud as she excitedly ran out and greeted awaiting crowds, ready to put on a death-defying show.

The wildlife warrior styled her signature khaki shirt with slim-fitting denim jeans.
At one point in the show, Bindi held a whole dead rat by the tail as she dangled over the water to entice the giant reptiles to leap out.
Meanwhile, 55-year-old Terri bravely reached her arm out while holding a chicken just inches from another croc’s deadly jaws.
