Pregnant Bindi Irwin shared a photo to Instagram of her family as she lovingly awaits the birth of her daughter who she calls her “baby wildlife warrior.”

In the photo shared with her 4.4 million followers, the 22-year-old conservationist and star of “Crikey! It’s the Irwins” is standing next to her husband, Chandler Powell, mom Terri and brother Robert on the family zoo in Australia.

The whole family dressed in their matching khaki zoo uniform with wildlife and zoo animals in the background.

Earlier this week, Powell, 24, reflected on the experience of waiting for the arrival of his first child.

"My girls," he began, "In awe every day of how my wife has been handling 9 months of pregnancy," Chandler wrote in a touching tribute to his growing family.

Powell and Irwin were married in March of 2020 and announced their pregnancy in August of the same year. "Baby Wildlife Warrior due 2021," Irwin wrote alongside a photo of the pair holding a small Australia Zoo uniform.

Powell and Irwin have since been very open about the progress of their pregnancy, often comparing the size of their child to young wildlife creatures.

Last month, Irwin revealed that the nickname they've given their child, "Baby Wildlife Warrior," is an ode to her late father, Steve Irwin, who came up with the term. "My dad was the first person to create the term 'Wildlife Warrior,'" Irwin told The Bump.
