Bindi Irwin: Only Animal That Terrifies Her Is A Bee

Bindi Irwin grew up constantly surrounded by animals, and she has now revealed that the only one she's terrified of is just a tiny insect! The daughter of the late "Crocodile Hunter" Steve Irwin admitted that no animal has ever scared her, except bees.

While at the Paley Center in New York City for Discovery Communications' 30th anniversary celebration on Wednesday, the 16-year-old told People about an unsettling encounter she once had with a bee at just 2 years old.

"When I was about 2 years old, I found a bee that had been stepped on on the foot path, and so I picked it up to rescue it, and it stung me on the hand," she explained. "From that day forward, I've been terrified of bees. Give me a 15-ft. crocodile any day over a bee."

Bindi continues to follow in her father's footsteps as an animal lover. Her Instagram is full of photos of herself with animals, as well as some old photos of the time she got to spend with her father before he tragically passed in 2006.

She posted a photo of the two on Father's Day this past Sunday from when she was a baby. "I love you so much. And miss you everyday," the caption read.

When it comes to her typical style, Bindi can't help but have a love for khaki, just as her dad did.

"I think my blood is actually khaki," she joked. "The khaki is a part of me. It's in my heart."

It's hard to believe so much time has passed since her father died. Even after all she's been through, she's still able to show the world her positive attitude and what a beautiful young woman she grew up to be, inside and out.
