Robert Irwin Shares Photo Of His Self-Isolation Buddy, A Tortoise Named Igloo

While so many people are going through some grim days, self-isolating and staying at home to avoid getting infected with the novel coronavirus and lower the curve, we can all probably agree that it’s really important to have an isolation buddy to keep ourselves sane. For some, it can be a parent, a loved one or a friend on the other end of the line, for some, it’s a beloved pet. And for some lucky ones, it’s a whole zoo.

Robert Irwin is the son of Steve Irwin and just like his famous father, he has a deep love for animals. Robert and his family live at the Australia Zoo and spend much of their time working on education, research and animal conservation. At the moment, the family is practising social distancing, much like the rest of the world, but they have plenty of interesting animals to hang out with.
