Justin Timberlake Honours Steve Irwin's Memory

Justin Timberlake has handed over a cheque for a 100,000 Aussie Dollars to the Australia Zoo’s Wildlife Warriors scheme.

The singer was performing a show in Brisbane on Saturday night when he made the sizeable donation - the equivalent of around £45,000.

Speaking to the audience, Timberlake said: "The last time I was in Australia I had the pleasure and honour of visiting Australia Zoo. I was taken around on a private tour by none other than Steve (Irwin), Terri, Bindi and Bob."

Upon handing the cheque to Australia Zoo chief Wes Mannion, Timberlake continued: “It dawned on me on that trip that there is no other country in the world that cares about wildlife more than Australia," reports Undercover.com.
