STEVE IS BURIED AT CROC ZOO
By Frank Thorne In Sydney
TRAGIC "Crocodile Hunter" Steve Irwin was buried at his Australia Zoo yesterday as his devastated two-year-old son asked: "Where's Daddy?"

The conservationist's body was driven from a funeral home to the zoo flanked by a police escort.

Only close friends and family were at the private service at Beerwah, north of Brisbane in Queensland.

Irwin, 44, is believed to have been buried in a plot close to his beloved crocodiles at sunset last night.

He died on Monday when a stingray's toxic barb pierced his heart while he was diving on the Great Barrier Reef.

His wife Terri has not spoken publicly. Her mum Julie Raines said Irwin's son Robert has been asking for his dad but his daughter Bindi, eight, has been "a big help".

"Robert says 'Where's Daddy?'. Bindi's been a rock. It's a hard time."
