Bindi Irwin's little girl has an undeniable love of animals.

On Sunday, the Crikey! It's the Irwins star's husband, Chandler Powell, shared photos from a visit to the Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital with their toddler daughter, Grace Warrior, who turns 3 later this month.

In the photo set shared on Instagram, Grace cuddles a baby kangaroo bundled up in a blanket on her lap. Later, she moves on to an exam table, where she examines and treats her toy shark.

"Grace spent the morning at the Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital in our wildlife nursery and treating her little toy whale. It’s incredible watching her connect and show empathy towards every species," the proud dad wrote.

"Our thoughtful veterinarian in the making! ❤️ P.S. Thank you to the vets and nurses for helping make her morning so magical. Best team in the world!"

Last month, the 25-year-old daughter of Steve Irwin shared a sweet before-and-after post of her daughter. 

In both photos, the toddler sat in the jaws of a “Cameron the Croc” statue, smiling as the inanimate beast held her between its teeth. The first photo dates back to November 2021, while the second was taken just last month.

“November 2021 vs. January 2024 🐊 I love watching our beautiful girl grow up at #AustraliaZoo,” Bindi captioned the Instagram carousel.
