Bob Irwin warns about the consequences of destroying this natural ecosystem

Bob Irwin, whom some might know best as the father of crocodile hunter Steve Irwin, is now asking that people take immediate measure and help protect Australia's Great Barrier Reef.

As Bob Irwin points out in an ad made available to you in the video above, the Great Barrier Reef is in great danger of being destroyed by industrial activity.

“The reef is one of the seven natural wonders of the world, but our governments seem to have forgotten that fact. The Australian people are the only ones who can make a difference to protecting the reef,” this greenhead says.

“It's your reef but you're going to have to fight for it,” Bob Irwin further argues.

The Great Barrier Reef that Bob Irwin is now trying to protect is the place where his son passed away back in 2006 after being stung by a stingray.
