Gee, I don't know whether congratulations are in order, but the Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin's four-year old son has received his first snake bite.
His mother, Terri Irwin, said the four-year-old was not alarmed when he was bitten by a baby boa constrictor recently but did ask mum if it was poisonous.
"He picked one of them up and it bit him on the finger, and he was so proud to have copped his first hit," Mrs Irwin said, the Associated Press reported.
"He said, 'I hope it wasn't venomous', so I assured Robert I wouldn't actually let him play with venomous snakes," she said.
Bob's nine-year-old sister Bindi was first bitten by a snake when she was 18 months old, Mrs Irwin said.
Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin died in 2006 after he was pierced by a stingray's barb during an underwater documentary shoot. He was 44.
They grow up so fast!
No word of where to send congratulations, but the Australia Zoo should work.
Seriously, he looks like a happy kid.
