The late Crocodile Hunter, Steve Irwin, is getting a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Irwin's wife Terri, daughter Bindi and son Bob will attend the April 26 ceremony on Hollywood Boulevard.

"Steve's Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame is an incredible honour for our family," Mrs Irwin said in a statement today.

"Steve would have been so chuffed. He was always such a proud Australian.

"We will celebrate Steve's legacy and continue to protect wildlife and wild places."

Irwin became a global star, particularly in the US, for his crocodile wrangling exploits and wildlife conservation efforts.

The world was shocked on September 4, 2006, when the 44-year-old was killed by a stingray while filming on the Great Barrier Reef near Port Douglas.

Wildlife warriors from around the world will attend the Steve Irwin Gala Dinner on May 5 in Beverly Hills to celebrate his life and legacy.
