FANS of Steve Irwin have been asked to wear the Crocodile Hunter’s
trademark khaki colour tomorrow in a stylish tribute to the fallen
wildlife warrior.
International Khaki Day this Friday began as a chain email calling on
all recipients to pay homage to the Australian conservationist, who was
killed by a stingray while filming a documentary on Monday.

Since his death, websites have been inundated by thousands of messages
of condolences from the animal activist’s huge fan base around the world.

Now the cyber campaign to honour him by wearing khaki has continued to
circulate around Sydney and the world, with thousands of workers
expected to turn up to their offices tomorrow wearing khaki clothing or
accessories.
