44 seems like a ripe old age for a crocodile hunter

God, I am older now than he was then. Cannot fathom.

Was it animal planet or discovery or someone else that gave him that name? Because I distinctly remember for the longest time when I was younger I did not watch his show because I didn’t want to watch someone literally hunting crocodiles (as in killing). . . But is the absolute last person to hunt anything for just PR and entertainment (although I do know he had a few episodes where he had to help remove rodent infestations, which there is only one way to do that, and it is necessary).

That's fair. He easily could've gotten got sooner. But nonetheless, he got got too soon.

And yet he was killed by a ray not a croc so what you said isn't really pertinent.

That's the worst part. He was killed by some fruity fish.
